Fans sitting courtside ejected after heckling LeBron, improper mask wearing

In the middle of what was an incredible rally for the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night against LeBron James, a couple of fans sitting courtside, in the middle of a pandemic no less, decided they wanted to become part of the show and decided to verbally confront LeBron James, drawing a response. James responded back and didn’t appear too bothered, but bothered enough to say something, of the conduct of two women sitting courtside, including one who pulled down her mask in order to yell.

The conduct of the two fans courtside resulted in an ejection from the game and them being escorted from the sideline.

The moment also recalled this classic moment/meme from the Real Housewives of Beverley Hills.

The fans were taken from their seats shortly after, as the referees called Hawks security to take care of the situation. Of course, the bigger question is why fans are allowed to sit courtside anywhere in the NBA, particularly on the same night that the NBA had yet another game postponed, with Monday night’s Nuggets-Pistons game being the 23rd postponed game so far this season.
