As Kevin Durant was about to shoot his free throw, everyone heard the impact on the ground. A spectator from Barclays Center sent a cup, apparently containing ice cubes, towards Luka Doncic and near Nic Claxton who was waiting at the scorer’s table to return. The scene took place at the end of the extension dominated by the Mavs on the floor of the Nets.
According to ESPN, the person in question tried to flee after his gesture but was arrested by the security services. After the game, the press asked the Slovenian what was going through his mind at the time. ” Nothing, I’ve already experienced that in Europe. It’s nothing “replied the Dallas player.
Nothing but potentially dangerous if the cup hit a player, or if a player then slipped on an ice cube or the wet floor. For the record, during the 2021 playoffs, a man threw a bottle at Kyrie Irving. This viewer had been banned from the TD Garden.
