SALT LAKE CITY – The New York Knicks bench erupted in laughter after veteran guard Jordan Clarkson fouled out during the team’s dominant 134–98 win on Sunday.
Clarkson put together a strong performance, recording 11 points, three assists, two rebounds, and two steals in just 18 minutes of action.
But after picking up his sixth foul, frustration got the best of him. As he walked toward the bench, Clarkson tossed his headband, ripped a stat sheet from teammate Josh Hart’s hands, and crumpled it up on the sideline.

Hart, who began his NBA career alongside Clarkson with the Los Angeles Lakers, tried to hide his laughter behind a towel as Clarkson vented. Mikal Bridges, seated next to Hart during the fourth quarter, also joined in the laughter at Clarkson’s expense.
After the game, Clarkson explained the lighthearted exchange.
“He always on me,” Clarkson said. “He made me laugh. I was kind of upset, but he got me right.”
