Utah Jazz guard knocks phone from fan’s hand
Seconds after being tossed out of his team’s Wednesday win over the Washington Wizards, Utah Jazz guard Rodney Hood did some ejecting of his own.
The backup guard was ejected from the game after receiving his second technical foul of the game. On his way off the court, he knocked a cellphone out of the hand of a fan sitting courtside at Capital One Arena.
The fan in question apparently was taking a photo or recording video of Hood as he left the floor.

Hood, who scored seven points to go along with six rebounds and two assists in 15 minutes of play, will likely face a fine for the incident. DeMarcus Cousins, Kyrie Irving and Austin Rivers have all earned $25,000 fines for interacting with a fan this season.
