Both Thompson and McDaniels received double technicals, and Green was ejected with a flagrant 2 foul. The score was still 0-0 at the time. Green, known for his aggressive play, now faces potential suspension, marking the 18th ejection of his career, further solidifying his lead among active NBA players in this regard.
