Video: Houston Rockets’ James Harden slaps phone after fan calls him ‘worst flopper in the NBA’

For the second straight week, an interaction occurred between a fan and an NBA player from the playoff opponent of the Utah Jazz.

Last week, it was Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook. This week, it's Houston Rockets guard James Harden.

A video posted to Facebook by user Jason Glad shows Harden slapping a fan's phone Wednesday night after being called 'the worst flopper in the NBA.' The Jazz beat the Rockets 116-108 in Game 2 in Houston Wednesday to even their Western Conference semifinal series at one game apiece.

Harden was emerging from the tunnel at the Toyota Center and headed toward the court when the incident occurred.
