New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis received the first ejection of his NBA career during Wednesday's 120-102 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves after picking up two technical fouls.
With Minnesota leading 45-43, Davis was called for a technical foul. Fifteen seconds later he picked up his second tech and was ejected for the first time in his six-year NBA career. Minnesota responded by finishing the half on a 17-6 run to take a 62-49 lead into the halftime locker room.
"That play was a hard play to officiate,'' Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau said.
