What was Jeff Teague thinking here? More importantly, what were all the refs thinking here? Not a single whistle on this play? After the Timberwolves’ Nemanja Bjelica comes down with a rebound off a Jeff Teague missed layup, the Atlanta guard looked frustrated with the no call. Teague came up behind Bjelica and ends up slapping him hard in the face.

While there was no call on the play, the league usually revisits these to discipline the player if they deem it worthy of it. In this case I would say Teague deserves a fine at the very least, but should probably get hit with a one game. It seemed to come out of frustration of not getting a foul call and the NBA should not allow this to be excused.
