It happened during the final minute of the third quarter as Kaman grabbed a defensive rebound. Paul pried the ball loose from Kaman, then put his hand behind him to give himself some space. Unfortunately, he hit Kaman in the groin, leading to Kaman retaliating by pushing CP3 to the floor.
Things got a little chaotic from there, as Glen Davis immediately went after Kaman, but LaMarcus Aldridge stepped in and shoved Davis to the ground. Players from both teams converged at center court, but fortunately no punches were thrown and things cooled down. Kaman was given a flagrant-1 foul but was allowed to stay in the game.
The incident seemed to light a fire under the Clippers who were down 92-81 at the time but came from behind to come away with a 126-122 victory. CP3 finished with 41 points and 17 assists.
