As Osman did his best to stay in bounds, holding onto the ball as he fell forward, Ingles seemingly had other ideas.

With his hands out, he appeared to thrust his hips forward into Osman's rear, knocking him over.

A clip of the incident swiftly went viral on X, formerly known as Twitter.

"They don't call him jingling Joe for nothing," joked one fan.

A second said, "Joe hitting all Ingles. I mean angles."

As a third commented, "The real foul was Joe not calling him back this morning."

While another noted, "Wasn't even called a foul sadly."

Jingles finished the game with four rebounds and two assists in fourteen minutes.

Osman racked up eight points, three assists, and two rebounds in 28 minutes.

It was another night to forget for the struggling Spurs who lost 108-98.

San Antonio's 10-38 record is currently the third-worst in the NBA, and leaves them bottom of the Western Conference ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday.

As for Orlando, they now sit eighth in the East at 25-23, with a trip to the high-flying Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday.
