Indiana Pacers forward Paul George was ejected from Saturday's clash with the Chicago Bulls after kicking the ball into a fan's face.
George was playing at home, and it's unlikely he intended to hit the fan. He even tried to make amends with a hug afterward. Still, he could face additional punishment.
George couldn't contain his frustration after getting whistled for a foul against Bulls swingman Jimmy Butler, and made the rash mistake in the heat of the moment.
The Pacers were up 20 points when George wrapped up his night with 13 points and seven rebounds.
