There were just 15 seconds left in the match when the Greek forward dribbled the ball in front of Lyles. The Kings center understood Giannis’ action as a provocation and did not hesitate to face him to steal the ball. As if it were his bodyguard, Brook López quickly entered the scene to defend an ‘Anteto’ who didn’t take long to get away from the action, and that’s when the exchange of blows began, but not before with an impressive neck grab from Lyles to Lopez. Front-row spectators experienced the fight first-hand, as they saw how some players literally fell on top of him.
