San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama was met with boos from a group of New York Knicks supporters and had an egg thrown in his direction, ESPN reported.
The incident unfolded in New York as the Spurs prepared for their matchup with the Knicks. Video reviewed by ESPN shows an egg sailing toward Wembanyama while fans shouted at the 7-foot-4 center. The report did not indicate whether the egg made contact.
Security staff quickly intervened to keep the crowd back. No injuries were reported, and it was not immediately clear if any arrests were made.
Representatives for both the Knicks and the Spurs declined to comment to ESPN about the confrontation.
