Former NBA point guard Sebastian Telfair has been ordered to stay away from his estranged wife for 3 YEARS ... after an alleged violent incident earlier this year.
In court docs obtained by TMZ Sports, Telfair is ordered to have absolutely no contact with his wife, Samantha -- that means no phone calls, texts, or emails.
Earlier this year, Samantha claimed Sebastian showed up to her home in Irvine, CA and went nuclear on the doorbell when he realized she wasn't home.
Samantha claims Sebastian started kicking the front door .
