That didn't take long.

Noted NBA heel Dillon Brooks got ejected Tuesday fewer than five minutes into his debut with the Houston Rockets. It took 4:33, to be precise.

His infraction? Punching an opponent below the belt. In a basketball game.

The incident took place in a preseason game between the Rockets and Indiana Pacers. The victim: Daniel Theis.

With Houston leading 13-10, Brooks was guarding Bennedict Mathurin on the perimeter. Theis set a screen on Brooks. Brooks responded with a left uppercut to the groin. It was a direct hit.
