WATCH: Hawks Assistant Coach Melvin Hunt Slammed a Chair in Frustration

While Atlanta Hawks were trailing against the Chicago Bulls, Hawks assistant coach Melvin Hunt was trying to give a boost to his team.

He seemed animated when suddenly he slammed the chair in front of him, which almost hit Trai Young. Young was sitting and couldn’t react much in front of his angry boss, but was fortunate enough to not get hit by the chair.

The frustration was understandable as the scoreline after the third quarter read 91-65. But as an experienced coach, Hunt should have been more careful, especially considering the fact that it was so close to cause an injury to one of their players. Commentators were also of a similar opinion which they voiced on air.

And it could well be that the 15-year veteran coach would be disciplined by the club.

How twitter reacted:

For the Hawks, Jabari Parker was the highest scorer, with 18 points and to top it, he had five rebounds and an assist.

For the Bulls from Chicago, Tomas Satoransky had 27 points, eight assists and seven rebounds, while Laury Markannen registered 17 points, four assists and five rebounds.
