Watch: DeRozan, Ibaka, Casey ejected late in Raptors' loss
An entertaining back-and-forth matchup on Sunday afternoon, featuring the best team in the Eastern Conference and the reigning NBA Most Valuable Player, concluded with two players and a head coach from the losing side being shown the door.
Toronto Raptors All-Star DeMar DeRozan was the first casualty when he picked up his second technical foul, a result of his continuing complaints to the officials about a late non-call when Oklahoma City Thunder forward Corey Brewer appeared to catch his arm on a layup attempt.
Referee Marc Davis tossed Serge Ibaka shortly thereafter.
Raptors head coach Dwane Casey, who didn't appear to say anything while walking the sidelines, was also ejected with 8.1 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Brewer and Kyle Lowry were seen laughing, as it was obvious to them Casey was being quiet.
The Thunder went on to win the game 132-125, to end Toronto's 11-game winning streak.
