NBA fans ripped Dillon Brooks for a cheap shot that led to his ejection minutes into his Rockets debut

C’mon, Dillon Brooks.

Not even five minutes into his preseason debut with the Houston Rockets, and Dillon Brooks has already been ejected.

After he looked to have hit Indiana Pacers forward Daniel Theis below the waste, the referee ejected Brooks from the contest as Theis stayed down for a second and looked like he was in legitimate pain.

Brooks has become one of the NBA’s premiere villains, and he wasted no time in his Rockets debut to further establish that fact.

This was clearly a cheap shot on Theis, and we’re guessing the Pacers won’t forget this once they play the Rockets again this season.

Like, c’mon man, it’s legitimately the preseason. Brooks isn’t going to win any new fans if he keeps playing like this, but he seems to have embraced his status as one of the league’s more infamous talents.

Rockets fans might enjoy his tenacity on the court, but it doesn’t do anyone any good if Brooks gets ejected for it.
