Video: Ben Simmons has ugly verbal exchange with fan in Orlando

 


Sports fans can do and say outrageous things. Most professional athletes handle this type of jeering or obnoxious behavior by either ignoring them or raising their game to silence critics and haters.

In the case of Ben Simmons, he decided to reply to an obnoxious, but non-personal fan insult by escalating the situation

 Simmons' comeback can be heard clearly after a fan was tweaking his performance on the court. 

No one can condone actions on either side, but it's the job of security to root out any unruly or confrontational fans, while players engaging in trash talking with them is a slippery slope.
