We call it a basket fight. In the fourth quarter in New Orleans on Friday night, the Miami Heat and Pelicans got into a huge battle.
Things started when Pelicans star Zion Williamson stepped up and missed a shot, complaining that he was fouled.
After Miami’s Jimmy Butler rebounded the ball, Williamson stole it back in the paint, going up for a shot near the net before being fouled by Miami’s Kevin Love.
Williamson grabbed Butler’s neck, and both teams broke into a crowd of dancing and screaming, as several players and coaches from both teams tried to stop the fight.
Najee Marshall and Butler were ejected from the game, as were the Pelicans’ Jose Alvarado and the Heat’s Thomas Bryant.
The Heat won the game 106-95. Watch the fight below.
