Roommates, hoop season is back! For many, this season is one for the books as LeBron James debuts with a new team after taking his talents to Los Angeles to ball with the #Lakers. Things got heated last night after a technical foul escalated to an on-court fight.
The Los Angeles Lakers played the Houston Rockets at the Staples Center in Los Angeles Saturday evening when, during the end 4th quarter, Lakers center, Brandon Ingram pushed Rockets guard, James Harden. Brandon received a technical foul for the shove, but the issue clearly wasn’t resolved because punches (and spit) began flying!
Yes, you read that correctly, spit!
At first the fight was only between Chris Paul and Rajon Rondo but then Brandon Ingram counted himself in! Rondo threw the first punch, resulting in him, Ingram, and Paul being ejected from the remainder of the game.
Suspensions are expected to be handed out as a result of the on-court fight.
In case you’re wondering, Houston ended up winning that game against the Lakers with a 124-115 final score.
