Mavericks say ‘unruly’ fans tried to give Chris Paul’s family ‘unwanted hugs’ before ejection during Game 4

The relationship between fans and players has been a major point of discussion this postseason. Both Draymond Green and Kyrie Irving have been fined for giving road fans the middle finger in these playoffs alone. On Sunday, Chris Paul and his family dealt with a situation in Dallas.

A fan in Dallas was ejected from Game 4 of their second-round series between Paul’s Phoenix Suns and the Mavericks, and as he was escorted out, Paul was seen on video saying “I’ll see you later” to him. Dave McMenamin reported that a Dallas fan put his hands on Paul’s mother and that his wife was also pushed. Paul’s children were also in attendance, and according to McMenamin’s source, “they felt very unsafe.” Paul echoed those sentiments on Twitter after the game. “Wanna fine players for saying stuff to the fans but the fans can put they hands on our families….f— that!!” Paul wrote.
