Thursday's game between the Brooklyn Nets and Dallas Mavericks was marked by an incident involving a fan in the Barclays Center stands.

The match came to a halt with 1:40 to go in the overtime after a fan threw a drink onto the court.

The fan appeared to be aiming for Mavericks star Luka Doncic. The cup landed near the Slovenian player, who looked none too pleased.

The person tried to sprint out of the arena following the throw. However, the fan was apprehended by security before he/she could get out of the lower bowl, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.

Later, the person, who threw the cup of ice onto the court during overtime, was arrested.

It's unclear what charges he or she is facing.

In the end, the Mavs won the game in overtime, 129-125. Doncic registered a historical triple-double with 41 points, 11 rebounds, and 14 assists.
