LA Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. ejected after foul on Memphis Grizzlies All-Star guard Ja Morant

LA Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. was ejected in the third quarter against the Memphis Grizzlies following a flagrant foul two on All-Star Ja Morant.

Morant, who would get up and remain in the game after the foul, was flying toward the rim at high speed when Morris took the Grizzlies' star point guard down hard. Morris got Morant's right arm as the point guard cocked the ball back on his ascent to the rim and hit Morant in the face with his open hand.

After officials reviewed the play, Morris' foul was upgraded to a flagrant foul penalty two and was ejected with 4:22 remaining in the third quarter.
