During Jennifer Hudson and Common’s date night at the New York Knicks game, where they played the Golden State Warriors, the Dreamgirls alum was struck in the face by a flying basketball.

On top of that, her boyfriend Common accidentally bopped her in the face while trying to protect her from the ball, knocking off her glasses. At the same time, Knicks guard Miles McBride ran into her trying to pursue the loose ball. "Protect Jennifer Hudson!!" TNT play-by-play announcer Ian Eagle said on the broadcast.
