Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brook now finds himself linked with the wrong company. 

After his altercation with Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell Thursday, some have compared the incident to play similar to Grayson Allen of the Milwaukee Bucks. 

The same Allen, who the Miami Heat recently trolled because his history of dirty play on the court. After their victory against the Bucks two weeks ago, the Heat's Twitter account posted a photo of Victor Oladipo finishing a dunk. Allen was in the background.

The caption for the post read: "Can't trip him if he's ten feet off the ground." It was in reference to Allen's tendency to trip players during games. 

Brooks made a similar dirty play against Mitchell. After falling to the ground following a layup attempt, Brooks hit Mitchell in the groin with a fist. Mitchell threw the ball at Brook before the two nearly got into a scuffle. Both players were ejected. 

Shortly after, NBA fans began comparing Brooks to Allen. None felt the play was accidental.

At least the Heat avoided any incidents with Brooks or Allen this season. They play the Bucks Saturday and Milwaukee and the Grizzlies March 15 in Miami.
