Will Barton appeared to push his finger into Seth Curry's eye during Game 6 scuffle
The Portland Trail Blazers took a 14-point lead with just under six minutes remaining in Thursday night’s Game 6, a game they had to win to save their season and force a Game 7 in Denver, when things took a strangely violent turn between the two teams.
Denver’s Will Barton freaked out a bit on Seth Curry as the Portland guard went to help a teammate get up off the floor. Barton gave Curry a good shove and then when Curry came back to have words with him, Barton appeared to push his finger into Curry’s eye.
For real.
Check it out for yourself:
Four players received technicals for the scuffle but nobody was thrown out.
Portland won the game, 119-108, which means we’ll have a Game 7 on Sunday.
Which should be fun.
