Game 3 of the series between the Brooklyn Nets and the Milwaukee Bucks have been going on, and it seems things got a bit heated during the Eastern Conference semifinals game, as a security guard for Kevin Durant may have overstepped his boundaries while trying to keep Durant out of trouble on the court.
Durant and PJ Tucker of the Bucks were facing off against each other while Durant had the ball, which led to a foul being called. The small scuffle turned into a heated back-and-forth, with Durant and Tucker getting in each other’s faces.
From there, security tried to intervene, but Durant’s security guard—Antjuan Lambert, allegedly bumped into PJ Tucker a bit too hard, which led to Lambert being suspended for the remainder of the series. Along with that, Lambert will not be allowed to work at Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum moving forward. Bucks guard Jrue Holiday spoke on the matter, saying, “Well, I know KD, and I know his security guard, so I knew that was his security guard. I guess, for the most part, maybe my man was doing his job. I don’t know. He bumped Tuck kind of hard, though.”
The series is currently tied at 2-2, and Game 5 is set to go down on June 15 in Brooklyn. Stay tuned for more updates.
