Whenever basketball players mix it up on the court, usually it amounts to nothing more than pushing and shoving. That was not the case on Saturday night when the Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers actually scraped it out.
It all starts with a hard foul on James Harden, delivered by Brandon Ingram. The real action starts when Chris Paul, who was complaining that Rajon Rondo spat on him, sticks his fingers into the face of Rondo, who retaliates with a big punch.
After it was all said and done, an unlikely suspect came into the picture. Apparently Metta World Peace, who was heavily involved in the infamous brawl between the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers back when he was known as Ron Artest, was in the stands.
Who says basketball players donโt fight?
