(CNN) Verbal altercations between NBA fans and players aren't new. In Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday, Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry was pushed by a man sitting in the front row at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California. It turns out the "fan" is Golden State Warriors investor Mark Stevens. On Thursday, the NBA also announced it was banning Stevens from attending any team activities through the end of next season's playoffs. Earlier an NBA spokesman said team representatives are held to the highest possible standard.
