Tempers flaring in Dallas leads to two players ejected
Late in the Game 3 101-90 win for the Dallas Mavericks , Russell Westbrook decided he'd had enough and gave Luka Doncic a hard foul by wrapping up Doncic's arm, a play that could've been dangerous. Westbrook took exception to something Doncic said and pushed him away, PJ Washington came over and gave Westbrook a small shove, and Westbrook gave an even harder shove right back.
There shouldn't be any further action taken against Washington that could impact him for the rest of the series, but it wouldn't surprise me to see Westbrook suspended for a game, as he also made contact with an official. It was already a dangerous play on one of the best players in the NBA and they like to protect their superstars, as they should.
