Young boy runs onto floor to hug Justise Winslow

A young boy in the stands at American Airlines Arena was a little too eager to celebrate the Miami Heat's win in Game 7 over the Charlotte Hornets.

With over three minutes remaining before the final buzzer, the child ran onto the floor and gave Heat rookie Justise Winslow a hug before security and one of the officials sent him away.

ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy hit the nail on the head, though - where exactly were his parents?

A similar situation occurred when the New Orleans Pelicans hosted the New York Knicks back in March, when a boy emerged from behind the basket to hug All-Star Carmelo Anthony.
