Marcus Smart’s frustration boils over in confrontation with Texas Tech’s “Number One Fan.”

With little more than six seconds left in the game, Smart fouled Red Raiders forward Jaye Crockett on a dunk attempt and stumbled out of bounds behind the baseline. As Smart was being helped up, he appeared to exchange words with a fan before shoving the man with both hands. The fan, wearing a black Texas Tech shirt, stumbled but didn't fall. Smart was then led away by his teammates.

Smart pointed back in the fan's direction as he was led to the bench and assessed a technical foul. He sat on the bench until the final buzzer. According to ESPN, Smart later told coaches that the fan used an unidentified racial slur.

The fan was later identified as Jeff Orr, who was profiled on Texas Tech's website in 2010 and identified as the program’s “Number One Fan.” Orr once traveled over 30,000 miles in a season to see Texas Tech play. He was also caught on camera directing this gesture at Texas A&M player Bryan Davis during a game in 2010.
