Dwight Howard let his frustration get the best of him.
The Atlanta Hawks center was ejected from Monday's game against the Boston Celtics after receiving two technical fouls. He earned the second after throwing down a two-handed dunk and using the rim as a chin-up bar.
The 31-year-old was slapped with his first tech earlier in the third quarter for shoving Al Horford after the pair got tangled up.

Howard finished with 17 points, 12 rebounds, and two blocks in 27 minutes for the Hawks, who he joined last summer as Horford's replacement.
