Atlanta Hawks player Trae Young stormed down the tunnel in anger after getting ejected at the end of his team’s play-in tournament defeat by the Orlando Magic.
Young was given a second technical with just under five minutes to play of the Magic’s dominant 120-95 win.
He first kicked the ball to stop it from going to the referee before snatching the ball away from the official again. Young then faked giving it to him before finally handing it over in anger.
Young then went straight down the tunnel without looking back as a humiliating night in Florida came to a close.
Speaking on TNT’s broadcast, the commentary team of Brian Anderson and Stan Van Gundy were less than impressed with Young’s actions.
They said: ‘That’s a bad look. No reason to do that.
‘He was already ejected and then he decided to give some money to the NBA on the way out the door. I think that’s charitable of him.’
More to follow.
