The “Spiderman” incident that disrupted Game 5 of the PBA Philippine Cup Finals series between San Miguel Beer and Magnolia Hotshots Pambansang Manok got mixed reactions not just here in the country but also from different parts of the world – including the NBA world.
Donovan Mitchell of the Utah Jazz was the first to react among NBA players regarding the infamous incident when a man in Spiderman costume entered the playing court with less than four minutes left in the game.

Mitchell, who uses the name ‘Spida’ on his social media platforms Twitter and Instagram, reposted videos of the incident with a caption.
“Real one,” Mitchell said as he added emojis of a spider and a web. The post has received almost 20 thousand likes and 3,500 retweets.
Atlanta Hawks rookie Trae Young also posted on his Twitter handle @TheTraeYoung and tagged Mitchell. “@spidadmitchell Quit interrupting games like this,” said Young. (Waylon Galvez)
