A rough night for the Hornets took a turn for the ugly late in the fourth quarter of Wednesday night’s play-in tournament game against the Hawks, when Charlotte forward Miles Bridges was ejected from the game for arguing a call. As Bridges made his way toward the tunnel, he turned and fired what appeared to be his mouth guard at a taunting fan, which actually hit a different fan a few seats away.
The mouth guard appeared to hit the fan’s left shoulder before ricocheting to her face. Bridges seemed to yell something at another fan seated on the railing, who was taunting him as he walked to the tunnel.
