SALT LAKE CITY -- In his first game after being fined for publicly criticizing officiating, Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert got ejected early in the first quarter.
Gobert smacked a bottle off the scorer's table in frustration after being called for his second foul with 9:13 remaining in the first quarter of Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. He was quickly ejected by referee Courtney Kirkland.
Gobert was called for a foul on the opening tip. His second foul came when Houston's James Harden flopped while Gobert was fighting for post position.
