Watch: Jefferson ejected after tangle-up with Bucks' Maker
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
Richard Jefferson's night was cut short Wednesday due to his involvement in a fourth-quarter skirmish with Milwaukee Bucks rookie Thon Maker, and a little bit of jawing.
The 15-year veteran picked up his first technical after throwing the rookie Maker to the ground, and soon collected a second for arguing the call with officials.
Frustrated with the ejection, Jefferson threw his jersey into the crowd as he left the court.
The 36-year-old finished the contest with 10 points, four assists, and one block in the 113-102 Cleveland Cavaliers victory.
