I can't be serious…
Former NBA player Matt Barnes reportedly sparked a beef during his son's high school basketball game in early February. The contest was between Crespi Carmelite and Harvard-Westlake, with Burns' son playing for Crespi.
Oh, and another interesting note from this game: Barnes' son is coached by Derek Fisher, and he appeared in the whole love triangle situation between himself, Barnes, and Barnes' ex-wife. Wow.
Regardless, Barnes reportedly got into a confrontation after arguing with the referee courtside. When a Crespi Carmelite student announcer told Burns to “shut up,” Burns allegedly approached him in an aggressive manner. Sources said the student announcer did not tell her to “shut up.” out kick.

Burns had to be told to calm down as people intervened and separated him from the student announcer.
According to OutKick, the broadcaster identified himself as Jake Lancer to an independent journalist, and Burns allegedly threatened to “slap” him.
“[Barnes] I said, “What do you think you're looking at?” And I said, “While I'm trying to make an announcement to the referee during the game, you're yelling, “You're an asshole.'' Don't touch me.'' said, “I'm going to beat the shit out of you.'' ”

What a terrible look…Matt Barnes has learned nothing from his early years in the NBA. By the way, I can't get over how awkward this whole relationship between Matt Barnes and Derek Fisher is.
