Not sure what you're saying. Would you eject the player for leaving the bench, like you would if a fight had started between two players on the court? I wouldn't. The player is protecting his coach from somebody that came out of the stands, meaning you don't know what the guy has on him or what his intentions may be.
Perhaps if all this occurred out of bounds and next to the fan, and the fan didn't go onto the court to confront the coach, I could see penalizing the player for pushing the fan. But in this case I'm definitely not penalizing him.
