In the third quarter of the Memphis Grizzlies game against the New Orleans Pelicans, Tony Allen fouled Omer Asik. It was Allen’s third foul in the game and he was visibly upset and frustrated. He walked over to the sideline and slapped the cameraman; actually he slapped the camera and it hit the cameraman in his face since he was holding it up. Allen later apologized and the man, Bo Bradley said he was fine and it’s no big deal. Still the league handed down a fine to punish Allen for his behavior.
