Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis accidentally stepped on a courtside beer can, causing it to explode, during Thursday night's game against New Orleans.
Portis hit a stepback jumper and his backwards momentum took him to the sideline. As he turned back down the floor to play defense, a fan in his front row had his can of beer on the floor in front of him. Portis stepped on that fan's beer can, knocking it over, and the beer exploded all over the nearby fans. Portis didn't miss a beat, as he had a job to do.

Spilled beer is a risk that courtside fans take at NBA games. They pay a lot of money not only for the front row tickets, but also for their beverages. It can be exciting to be so close to the action, but they risk getting soaked.
Portis scored 14 points and grabbed 8 rebounds in 22 minutes off the bench as the Bucks blew out the Pelicans 136-111.
