MIAMI -- Golden State Warriors backup point guard Shaun Livingston was ejected midway in the second quarter of Saturday night's 123-95 win over the Miami Heat for making contact with an official following a dispute of a non-call.
Livingston was hacked on the arm by Heat guard Tyler Johnson and official Courtney Kirkland was right near the play, but no call was made. The 6-foot-7 guard who is typically reserved and quiet, promptly confronted Kirkland. During the verbal exchange, their heads bumped each other and Livingston was tossed from the game.
