Camera glitched out when respawning

Match ID 63621, at about 23:30 my character respawned but my camera didn't follow. It was stuck hovering above what I think was the yellow lane's first enemy guardian (Amber Guardian), though I could be wrong. I was too amused to take in the details. If it happens again I'll be sure to have a screenshot.

I could only move the camera by pitch and yaw, no movement. It was not rotating around a focus point - it was in a very fixed point of origin.

I could tell my character could move using WASD, mostly due to audio cues. I could still see my reticule. My stamina bar would deplete and everything when jumping around. I could shoot, reload, and use my abilities.

I had watched a replay of my death beforehand. The replay finished before I respawned. I'm guessing something about the state of the camera's character follow logic in the replay is the root cause. Just a guess, though.

The camera didn't seem to be near where I had died.

I tried clicking "Unstuck Hero" a couple times. That didn't fix the issue.

After clicking "Suicide" everything fixed itself.
 
Similar issue in match 63690. Sat there for a few seconds in the sort of post-death camera mode after respawning. A charged up melee broke me out.
