Raptors' Serge Ibaka: Ejected from Tuesday's OT win

Ibaka scored 16 points (7-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt) while adding six rebounds and an assist in 26 minutes before being ejected from Tuesday's 122-120 overtime win over the Bulls.

Analysis:

He got into a brief fistfight with Robin Lopez in the third quarter that got both players sent to the showers, and while the ejections might have been a net loss for the Raptors from a talent perspective they lit a fire under the team that inspired them to overcome a 15-point fourth-quarter deficit to send the game to extra time. Since failing to score a point against Dallas a little over a week ago Ibaka seems to have found his comfort zone on offense, averaging 16.3 points, 6.7 boards and 2.3 three-pointers in his last three games.
