Miami Heat Mascot Knocked Out

That is Burnie, the Miami Heat mascot. As you might imagine, mascots get themselves into all sorts of fun but sometimes, it can get dangerous. Burnie and the Miami Heat had an idea to have Conor McGregor fight the furry friend mid-court during halftime.

Here's a little more about Burnie's stats according to NBA.com.

Standing 7’6” with fire-orange fur and a green basketball nose, Burnie’s larger-than-life look and fun-loving energy has fired up HEAT fans for 32 years and counting.
