Terry went into the stands while trying to contest a dunk by Kings guard Ben McLemore when his outstretched hand was slapped away by Roberts.
Players from both teams, including Cousins, met near the basket for a few tense moments, and Roberts was ejected shortly after.
This isn’t anywhere as serious as Rajon Rondo’s slur toward referee Bill Kennedy, but it is another unfortunate incident for a team trying to pull itself up from the bottom of the Western Conference.
Sacramento beat Houston 107-97 as Terry scored 14 points and Cousins had 26 points and 12 rebounds.
