[Highlight] Wagner was knocked out when Diallo shoved him and he knocked heads with Isaiah Stewart. You can see his head bounce. He was already out cold when Killian hit him.

    Damn that makes it worse. Could be seriously hurt

  2. -Zenith-

    That punch looks so much worse from this angle, fucking hell.

  3. poopoopatchuw

    That is a French punch if I’ve ever seen one

  4. CatDad660

    Stewart is holding up, then protecting him after the rear head punch. Really curious what Diallo and Killian get for this.

  5. I get that Killian is retaliating, but never hit the back of the head…that’s a king hit and could kill someone.

  6. zerofades

    That’s not fucking okay Killian, genuinely hope Mo is alright.

    I can’t find a better angle showing their heads collide, but you can see Wagner’s head bounce off Stewart’s jaw (the player that caught him) and he’s clearly knocked or stunned before Killian does anything. Temple to jaw I think.

    edit: I’m dumb, there was a better video the whole time. https://streamable.com/z0mc1a You can see at 1:38 (98 sec) and 2:20 (140 sec) Wagner is stunned from the whiplash from Diallo. It looks like his own shoulder gets forced into his jaw.

  8. Yeah, he should get a long suspension for that one

    Nothing says tough like punching a guy in the back of the head.

    This should be used in fight gyms as an example of how not to throw a punch

    What an absolute punk shot to take at someone. I get being mad about the way he was pushed, but this sort of retaliation is absolutely asinine.

  12. behappysometimes

    What a fucking pussy for this cheap shot.

  13. slaxlstradler

    Hit someone in the back of the head.. dirty fighter. 10 game’s minimum

  14. lolvalue

    Good thing he has absolutely no idea how to throw punch.

  15. nolefan999

    Wild how everyone has the same reaction here except pistons fans and one dude out here trying to race bait everyone

  16. Doesn’t matter. Still should be suspended heavily for dangerous hit on back of head.

  17. servantofashiok

    I remember there was a story about a boxer that became paralyzed and ultimately died from getting punched in the exact same location in the back of the head. That area is no joke, top of the spinal cord, no muscle cushioning, lots of nerves… hopefully he’s alright.

    Edit: my mistake, that boxer is Prichard Colon and is still alive but in a vegetative but stable condition after being in a 7 month coma after the fight.
    Here’s the story https://youtu.be/GeJ3jlQg2tU

  18. All this chippiness around the league tonight, mercury in retrograde or something?

  19. Ngl this is one of the worst videos I’ve seen lol. Surely there is better footage

  20. Jrod-Mojo

    Did Wagner wake up or is there any status on his condition?

  21. Actually-Gay-NBA-Fan

    Funny how the dude who was trying to murder Lebron on live television is the good guy here making sure Wagner doesn’t just fall face first into the chairs out cold.

  22. I think if anything he might’ve been out with the forearm shove.

    His legs don’t show a man whose unconscious nor does Stewart casually holding him up around the waist point to ~250lb of dead weight.

  23. waterten8787

    even if it wasn’t the KO punch it was still dangerous af

  24. zeCrazyEye

    So you’re saying he punched an unconscious person..

  25. Medium_Egg1968

    Anyone defending that punch should spend some time reading into what happens when somebody gets punched in the back of the head. Its genuinely one of the worst things you can do in a physical altercation and not legal in any combat sports for good reason.

  26. MisterMeme01

    Literally EVERYONE in this sub was saying ‘Fuck around and Find Out’ when Kieff damn near was paralyzed by Jokic’s cowardly move.

    “If you cheap shot me, then turn your back on me.”

    Oh but now those rules don’t count, huh?
