ISAIAH THOMAS YELLED out, and then he disappeared among the bodies. The 5-foot-9 Boston Celtics point guard had just collided in midair with Karl-Anthony Towns, one of four Minnesota Timberwolves defenders who had contested Thomas' layup early in the third quarter of their March 15 matchup.

As the layup fell wayside without a referee's whistle, Thomas tumbled to the TD Garden floor and ended up facedown, inches from the feet of a seated cameraman.
