Walking to the Thunder bench during a third-quarter timeout, Steven Adams tried to talk to official Gary Zielinski about Utah's Rudy Gobert lowering the shoulder, but it was too late.
Walking to the Thunder bench with 2:48 left in the fourth quarter, Adams didn't talk to anyone. He was too furious.
Teeth gritted, Adams fouled out and walked straight past the Thunder bench with his arms locked at his side and straight into the Thunder's tunnel in OKC's 102-95 loss to the Jazz on Wednesday.
Adams had four fouls with 6:46 left in the third quarter after his first chat with Zielinski.
