YouTube
Veteran forward Metta World Peace of the Los Angeles Lakers was ejected from Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies at Staples Center with 10:45 remaining in the fourth quarter.
After getting tangled up with Vince Carter, the officials elected to call a jump ball on the play, which World Peace took offense to, as he believed he was fouled.
After arguing the call, World Peace picked up back-to-back technical fouls, resulting in an automatic ejection.
He ended the night with two points and four personal fouls off the bench in 13 minutes of action.
