The NBA bans two people for life from its arenas after an incident during Game 1 of the NBA Finals involving San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama. Multiple outlets report that a fan runs onto the court during the game and attempts to take a selfie or record video with Wembanyama, briefly disrupting play. The person is arrested shortly after the incident, and the NBA later issues a lifetime ban. A second person is also banned for life, according to the league’s actions described by several sources.
In the same broader reporting cycle, one outlet also notes that the NBA is looking at a separate interaction involving New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson during the fourth quarter of the Finals opener. That game ends with the Knicks defeating the Spurs 105-95.
Across the articles, the central points are consistent: the court-rush selfie attempt occurs during the NBA Finals opener, it leads to disruption and an arrest, and the league responds with lifetime bans affecting two individuals.
