In a crucial game for the still-not-quite-eliminated Detroit Pistons, tempers boiled over between Pistons All-Star Andre Drummond and Brooklyn Nets reserve Quincy Acy with 18.1 seconds remaining in the third quarter.
After getting up in each other's faces, Drummond shoved Acy backward. In the ensuing scuffle, official David Guthrie appeared to catch an inadvertent forearm to the face from a charging Acy.
Naturally, both players were ejected from the game.
