Cal basketball player Fardaws Aimaq was allegedly subjected to racist taunts and called a "terrorist" by a fan during a game against UTEP, according to Cal coach Mark Madsen. A video circulating on social media shows Aimaq confronting the fan in the stands after the game. The Cal basketball program has requested that the fan be banned from the premises and is calling for a formal investigation into the incident. Aimaq's agent, Daniel Poneman, confirmed that the fan continued to heckle Aimaq even after the game. Coach Madsen acknowledged that the language used by the fan was wrong but also expressed disappointment in Aimaq for confronting the fan in the stands. Aimaq, a transfer student-athlete from Texas Tech, is averaging 16 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game for Cal. This incident highlights the ongoing issue of racial abuse and discrimination faced by athletes of diverse backgrounds. The consequences for Aimaq's actions will be managed internally by the team.
