Sacramento Kings: What happened between Dave Joerger and Buddy Hield Thursday night?

After Buddy drilled a deep three from just in front of the logo to bring the Sacramento Kings within four with 18 seconds to play, the Kings fouled on the inbounds—and then Joerger and Hield got into a discussion on the sideline.
