Usually, it’s not how you expected a Monday morning to begin by seeing that the Australian National team, which included Milwaukee Bucks players Thon Maker and Matthew Dellevadova, involved in a brawl with the Philippine National team in a FIBA World Cup Qualifier contest.
After Australian player Chris Goulding was elbowed in the face by a member of the Philippines, Australia retaliated. Former NBA player Andre Blatche came in throwing haymakers on his own.
From there, things only escalated, as a Philippine staff member threw a chair at an Australian player.
