Update: According to The Dallas Morning News - Heckling by Los Angeles Clippers fans may have led to the Mavericks' Drew Gooden(FC) allegedly making some insensitive comments during Saturday's game at Staples Center. Gooden did not play in the game and was dressed in street clothes behind the bench. According to Outsports.com, a Web site devoted to gay issues in sports, Gooden directed a homophobic slur towards a pair of fans seated near the Mavericks' bench. Gooden directed the slur at actor Chris Wylde, who is not gay and was attending the game with a friend, the Web site reported. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban would not comment, but according to the Web site, he told Wylde in an e-mail that the team would deal with Gooden internally. Cuban also sent an e-mail to the Web site saying that some of the heckling was not as innocent as fans suggested, although he added that even so, it doesn't excuse homophobic commentary. The NBA office has not gotten involved yet but typically investigates such matters.

Fantasy Impact: These are the types of situations fantasy owners have to deal with in owning Gooden. For some reason or another, it's hard for him to stay on the court, whether it's due to injury or unforeseen circumstances such as his big mouth.
