Grizzlies guard Tony Allen got called for a foul in the third quarter of last night's Pelicans/Grizzlies game, and he was not happy about it. He was actually so frustrated about it that he walked over to a cameraman who was capturing the game, yelled in his face, and then smacked him. We don't know why he decided to take his frustrations out on the poor cameraman, who was just sitting there doing his job. But as you can see in the clip above, it looks like he did a little bit of damage to the guy.

No word on whether or not Allen apologized later (we checked his social media accounts and he didn't mention the smack there). But we're pretty sure the NBA is not going to like this. And there's probably a fine coming to Allen sometime in the near future.
