Friday’s Golden State Warriors vs. Charlotte Hornets game didn’t seem abnormal on paper, but things got extremely chippy at the end of the game. With 12 seconds left in the contest, the Hornets’ Miles Bridges was called for goaltending on layup by the Warriors’ Lester Quinones, putting Golden State up 97–84. That would prove to be the final score.
Bridges and Grant Williams took serious issue with the late attempt to score, despite there still being a differential between the game and shot clocks. That caused a fracas on the court as the clock was winding down on a comfortable Warriors win.
A slew of technical fouls were called, and Bridges, Quinones and Williams were all ejected.
