Oklahoma City Thunder forward Serge Ibaka was assessed a flagrant foul during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers when he swatted Blake Griffin below the waist.
It happened with under two minutes left in the fourth quarter as Clippers forward Matt Barnes hit a three pointer. Griffin and Ibaka were jockeying under the basket for a potential rebound when Ibaka karate chopped Ibaka's groin with his right arm. Griffin went down and the referees gave Ibaka the flagrant.
Adding insult to injury, the Thunder won the game 108-104 and completed a season sweep of the Clippers.
H/T LBS.
