Sacramento Kings forward Matt Barnes had his night cut short in the third quarter of Sunday night's game after he whacked Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Sean Kilpatrick as he went up for a layup.

The foul was declared a Flagrant 2, and Barnes shortly headed to the showers after the ill-advised play. Check it out.

Barnes made excessive contact with the airborne Kilpatrick, not only hitting him in the face, but also following through, which gave the refs no choice but to eject him upon review.

The 6-foot-7 forward finished with seven points and six assists in a 122-105 Kings win.
