Paul George of the Indiana Pacers and Gerald Henderson of the Philadelphia 76ers were both ejected from Monday's 120-111 Indiana win after a scuffle.
The bad blood began late in the fourth quarter when the two got tangled up at the top of the Sixers' key. Then Henderson elbowed George, receiving a flagrant 2 and ejection. George was then tossed after receiving his second technical foul.
George exited with 27 points. The Pacers were looking to clinch a playoff spot with a win and a loss by either the Heat or Bulls.
