The incident appeared to occur during the fourth quarter of the game, as the Warriors held a 112-99 lead with just over five minutes remaining.
The clip shows a Black man wearing a black long-sleeved shirt arguing with a white man wearing a No. 30 Steph Curry Warriors jersey. The man in black appears to get aggravated and pushes the Warriors fan, who then retaliates by grabbing him by the shirt and landing several overhand punches as he holds him down.

A man wearing a grey quarter-zip jumps into the fray, attempting to hold back the Warriors fan, which seems to be successful – for a short while apparently.
In a second clip, the man in the Curry jersey jumps in again, throwing more punches at the individual in the black ensemble.

A nearby woman wearing a grey sweatshirt unsuccessfully attempts to hold back the Warriors fan and nearly gets struck by him in the process.
Arena security then arrives on the scene to intervene, escorting the Warriors fan out of the section. As he is led up the stairs both fans continue to gesture at each other and exchange words, but it’s unclear what was said.
The exact reason behind the brawl is unknown and it’s unclear if anyone was seriously injured or disciplined over the incident.
The Warriors haven’t commented publicly on the fan fight, either.
