Things got testy at the Staples Center on Friday night.

A heated scuffle broke out between the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks after Malcolm Brogdon hit Nick Young with a hard foul in the third quarter. Young retaliated by shoving the Bucks rookie, leading players from both sides to intervene.

Young was ejected from the contest after receiving his second technical of the evening, while Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell and Bucks center Greg Monroe were also forced to leave for attempting to escalate the situation.
