Herschel ‘Guy’ Beahm IV, popularly known as Dr Disrespect in showbiz, attended last night’s game alongside Optic HECZ at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. The gamers reserved courtside seats for their enjoyment but got into a heated controversy right after it. 

Gaming celebrities get accused of hurting the 3-point god, Steph Curry!

Steph Curry tripped last night during game 3 of the NBA conference finals. The 3-point god was pretty mad at this, as seen in the video clip that became viral in hours. As a result, a majority of the Golden State Warriors fans accused Dr Disrespect and OpTic HECZ as they were seated right next to where the incident happened. Here’s what the fans had to say. 

But before the accusations could get bigger, both of them uploaded tweets proving that they were not a part of the fiasco. 

OpTic HECZ’s tweet became on point as he posted a clip, clarifying that it was some concession worker who accidentally made Steph Curry to trip. On the other hand, the Two-Time put out a simple tweet saying, ‘I didn’t trip @StephenCurry30.’ 

On top of that, OpTic gaming’s official Twitter post cleared out the confusion, indirectly putting an end to the controversy.
