Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr was thrown out of their matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.
Fortunately for NBA fans, Snoop Dogg was on the call on Peacock to take everyone through it.

Kerr erupted midway through the fourth quarter of the contest at the Intuit Dome after becoming increasingly frustrated throughout the game. It was a block from John Collins, who stuffed Gary Payton at the rim and blocked his layup off the backboard, that finally set Kerr off for good. After Stephen Curry was called for a foul on the other end, an irate Kerr charged toward the officials screaming.
It took an assistant, Payton and Brandin Podziemski restraining him to keep Kerr back while he picked up two technical fouls, which triggered the ejection. Kerr then quickly walked off the floor and into the tunnel.
Snoop Dogg was a special guest on the broadcast for Peacock’s tripleheader on Monday night. He joined regular announcers Reggie Miller and Terry Gannon in a unique event ahead of his participation in the network’s coverage ahead of the Winter Olympics next month in Italy.

While it didn’t have an impact on the game, his presence on the broadcast certainly made Kerr’s ejection that much more memorable.
