Things got heated during Saturday’s Thunder-Wizards game.
Following a made shot by Wizards forward Anthony Gill just seconds before halftime during Oklahoma City’s 132-111 win in Washington, Justin Champagnie and Thunder big man Jaylin Williams got into it under the basket.
Moments later, Oklahoma City guard Ajay Mitchell got between the two and was subsequently shoved in the face by Champagnie, which then quickly descended into an all-out brawl between the two teams.It took nearly a minute for officials and staff from both teams to eventually break up the fight, which leaked into the stands behind the basket.It is still unclear if those four players will receive any additional punishment from either the NBA or their respective teams.Saturday’s victory marked the Thunder’s 56th win, the most in the NBA this season. Reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has led the way for Oklahoma City again this year, averaging 31.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.6 assists while shooting 55.1 percent from the field through 58 games. Gilgeous-Alexander is in the running for his second straight MVP award, and recently expressed his desire to take home the honors again.

You got to go out there and be the most valuable player in the world in the best league in the world, and do it night in, night out. “And you can say it as much as you want. At the end of the day, you got to put the pens to the paper and be it. So that’s where I hang my hat.”Stream It Or Skip It: ‘Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man’ on Netflix, a Fitting Conclusion to the Stylish Rock ‘n’ Roll Gangster Saga
