The Clippers were on the road playing the Kings on Wednesday when the incident occurred in the fourth quarter. Kings fans were particularly incensed as the woman seemed to show discomfort around her eyes.

Former Clipper Glen Davis was fined $15,000 in March for kicking a seat cushion into the stands during a game.
