A courtside fan shoved Kyle Lowry after the Toronto Raptors point guard went crashing into the seats while trying to save a loose ball during the fourth quarter of Game 3 on Wednesday night.

The veteran All-Star hopes the fan - who was escorted out of Oracle Arena as a result of his actions - is never allowed back into an NBA arena.

"There's no place for that. He had no reason to touch me," said Lowry following Toronto's 123-109 victory, according to The Athletic. "He had no reason to reach over two seats and then say some vulgar language to me. There's no place for people like that in our league. Hopefully he never comes back to an NBA game."

Lowry finished with 23 points, nine assists, and five 3-pointers to help give Toronto a 2-1 series lead.
