COURTSIDE CHILLIN — People around the NBA were shocked to see Giannis Antetokounmpo ejected with a second technical foul Wednesday for staring down a player after a dunk against the Pistons, but none more surprised than this Bucks fan sitting court-side who briefly got a new next-seat neighbor.

The video from TikTok user @scoomer12 starts with a court-side angle of Antetokounmpo speaking with the officials near midcourt before he walks toward the sideline and the camera flips to reveal the two-time MVP taking a seat among the fans.

"Come get me," Antetokounmpo said to the officials as he sat down, seemingly refusing to accept the ejection. He was seated for all of three seconds before acquiescing and leaving the game.

The Bucks ended up winning the game 120-118, so the fan went home with a win and a priceless video that goes above and beyond the requirement of, "pics or it didn't happen."
