In the Boston Celtics’ late-game push to beat the Milwaukee Bucks on their home floor of Fiserv Forum on Monday night, Milwaukee star Giannis Antetokounmpo and Boston point guard Marcus Smart got tangled up on a play and crumpled to the ground together in a heap.
In the ensuing attempt to get up, Smart tried to be sportsmanlike to the Greek Freak despite the chippiness of the game and offered Antetokounmpo a hand up. Giannis took it initially, but when they failed to leverage one of the pair upright with limbs still tangled everywhere, the Bucks star kicked Smart in the face, causing the Flower Mound native to waive off Giannis in frustration and leave him to his own devices.
