LeBron James called for swift action against a Golden State Warriors minority owner who shoved Toronto Raptors player Kyle Lowry during game three of the NBA Finals Wednesday night.

The Los Angeles Lakers star and philanthropist wrote a lengthy post on Instagram Thursday, denouncing the recent behavior of Mark Stephens, a venture capitalist who joined the teams ownership group as an executive board member in 2013.

Theres absolutely no place in our BEAUTIFUL game for that AT ALL, James wrote in a caption below a video of the incident. Stephens can be seen shoving Lowry after the Raptors guard fell into the crowd as he pursued a loose ball heading out of bounds something considered an ordinary occurrence at NBA games.

When you sit courtside you absolutely know what comes with being on the floor, James wrote before suggesting that Stephens should especially be held accountable for his actions as a part-owner.

He later added, He knew the rules more than just the average person sitting watching the game courtside so for that Something needs to be done ASAP! A swift action for his actions.
