F/C Matt Bonner had a special guest for Game 2. A 12-year-old fan was suspended from his middle school for having Bonner's face shaved into his red hair. The student was given free tickets and met his favorite player before the game. Bonner didn't understand why the school chose to suspend the fan, who was presented with an autographed pair of shoes and an autographed jersey. "Keep supporting us redheads in the NBA," Bonner told his young fan.
