Jeff Teague, surely a little frustrated with the Hawks losing at home to the Timberwolves, smacked Nemanja Bjelica in the face after not drawing a foul he wanted.
Maybe Teague can claim he was going for the ball and with Bjelica’s back to him, he couldn’t see the Minnesota forward had already passed it.
But Bjelica did pass it. And Teague did hit him in the face.
Intent means only so much. The results were clearly foul.
