Here’s a lesson for all of us regarding controlling our emotions.
During tonight’s Dallas Mavericks at Oklahoma City Thunder game, former KY Wildcat Enes Kanter lost his temper and slammed his fist down on a chair at the bench. He sat down and started rubbing his forearm immediately afterward.

David Aldridge shared an update on Kanter’s condition after the game:
Billy Donovan says Enes Kanter has a right forearm fracture. I saw Kanter briefly in hallway & asked what he did. He said: "nothing smart."

The Thunder may have won the game, but they lost a big part of their reserve squad. According to the OKC Thunder game notes for tonight’s matchup, Kanter has appeared in 46 games and has averaged 14.6 points and 6.8 rebounds in 21.9 minutes this season.

Remember, ladies and gentlemen: we must always remember to keep our cool.
