On Thursday night
the intense game between Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunders, Cavaliers forward, Lebron James tried to save a loose ball in the fourth quater causing him to run out of bounds and collide with a woman who was sitting alongside her husband. The injured woman, Ellie Day, appears to be the wife of an Australian golfer Jason Day. After the collision, immediate medical attention was given to her. Ellie Day would not be impressed with what has happened after paying a lot of money to be seated at the courtside. There should be more room between the basketball court and the first rows around the court in order to avoid incidents like this. This must have been a very unpleasant experience for Ellie Day for a big man like Lebron James who is 6 ft 8 and weighs 249 Ibs to come running into her. You can watch the video Below.

A similar incident happened when Shaquille Oneil still played for the Phoenix Suns. There was a loose ball and he came running to save the ball and the next thing, his whole bench filled with his team mates all cleared and laughing so hard because they know the kind of damage that can be done when a man as big as Shaq comes running toward you.
