A fan of the Atlanta Hawks seemed to undergo a knee injury during a intermission match while the team faced the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday evening.
The fan participated in a tick-to-toe shooting challenge, and when he went up for a lay-up, he slipped and crashed on the ground. He was seen by holding his left knee while his opponent continued the dispute on the other side of the court. A video showed that the fan was placed on a stretcher and took the ground.
