An altercation in the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers led to the ejection of Kris Dunn.
The 31-year-old American guard of the Clippers initially shoved Luka Doncic into LeBron James at the end of a play, late in the NBA Emirates Cup and Regular Season contest. Quickly supporting his Lakers teammate and potential future teammate on the senior national team of Slovenia, Jaxson Hayes responded by pushing Dunn. The players of both Los Angeles franchises were then separated.
After being issued two technical fouls, Dunn was removed from the game, with Hayes being called for one technical foul.
“Everybody got each other’s back on this team. So, I appreciate him. I’ll pay his fine for sure, but that just shows what kind of team we are,” said 26-year-old Doncic in a postgame interview, sharing his view on the heated argument and actions, which are likely to indeed attract league sanctions.
