VIDEO: Mike Dunleavy draws offensive foul, leaves game covered in blood
At 33 years of age, Mike Dunleavy is still going hard in the paint.
In fact, Dunleavy may be going a little too hard in the paint.
During the second quarter of Thursday's game between the Chicago Bulls and Houston Rockets, the Duke product attempted to stop a drive to the hoop from Chandler Parsons and ended up taking a very strong elbow to the face.
The result? An offensive foul called on Parsons and lots and lots of blood.
In case you didn't catch a glimpse of Dunleavy's face, here's a screenshot.

Dunleavy returned to the game with 10 stitches and proceeded to drop 18 points in the third quarter, more than he's scored in his his last nine contests. He also outscored the entire Rockets team, who only managed 16 points in the third frame.
Do not mess with Dunleavy.
