Serge Ibaka grabbed a Cavs player by throat and then somehow missed KO punch

Things got a little out of hand in Monday night’s Raptors-Cavs game in Cleveland as Serge Ibaka grabbed Marquese Chriss by the throat and then somehow threw a wild punch that missed it’s desired target.

It all happened after Ibaka and Chriss got tangled up on a long pass at the end of the the third quarter. Ibaka wasn’t happy at all about the apparent stare down and maybe some words from Chriss because he quickly got up and got a hand around Chriss’ throat.

He then pushed him into the basket in a violent manner and threw a punch that didn’t connect.

Seriously, how do you miss that punch? Both players were ejected, obviously, and will likely face punishments from the NBA.
