SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles received a flagrant foul in the fourth quarter in their preseason game against the Sacramento Kings.
Ingles dived on the floor for a loose ball when Wenyen Gabriel was hovered over the Jazz forward. When Gabriel was walking over Ingles to start running down the floor, Ingles used both of his knees to trap Gabriel’s leg, forcing him to fall to the floor.
The officials stopped the ball and reviewed the incident on the monitor and issued Ingles a flagrant foul.

Utah was losing to the Kings at the time of the flagrant and head coach Quin Snyder decided to pull his top players from the game, which included Ingles.
There isn’t any video from the game since it was not televised, the only game this season that is not being broadcast.
The Jazz will wrap up their preseason schedule on Wednesday when they host former Weber State Wildcats star Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers. The game will begin at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast on AT&T SportsNet.
