Miami Heat center Meyers Leonard was playing Call of Duty on a Twitch stream on Tuesday when he yelled out an anti-Semitic slur while trash talking with other people who were playing the game with him.

It was a very ugly moment that was quickly followed by Leonard taking a phone call and then ending his game because he said his wife needed him.

Here’s Leonard’s statement:
