The move was in retaliation to a foul earlier in the game where Casspi fouled Pierce by hitting him on his head as he attacked the basket.
Pierce was visibly annoyed by the play and when it came time for him to defend Casspi at the other end of the court, he made sure he repaid the favour with the shove below to send the Sacramento Kings star flying into the crowd.
Casspi went straight out of bounds and into a young girl sitting behind the cameramen, and she was seen crying immediately after as either the scare of a 6-foot beast flying towards her or the collision itself caused her to be left upset.
Pierce’s shove was initially called a standard foul on the court but a replay changed it to a flagrant-1. The 17-year veteran will hopefully be wary of the next time he decides to send an opposing player flying into the crowd…
