It was all fun and games until Thursday.
The fan who stormed the court during Game 1 of the NBA Finals was arrested after the incident and will be banned for life from all league arenas, an NBA spokesperson said, per the Associated Press.
The spokesperson added that a second individual will also receive a lifetime ban for his role in the situation.
The fan ran onto the court shouting “Wemby, Wemby” during the fourth quarter of the Knicks’ 105-95 Game 1 victory and seemed to be attempting to grab a selfie with Victor Wembanyama and Mitchell Robinson.
However, security at Frost Bank Center quickly removed the fan from the court.
It seemed the Spurs young star enjoyed the scene while Robinson looked confused.
The fan entered the action with 6:32 left in the game and play was halted for roughly a minute.
It came at a pivotal point for the Knicks, who erased a 14-point deficit in the third quarter and turned it on even more in the final frame.
