Just because it’s the preseason doesn’t mean there is a lack of intensity.
The Washington Wizards and New York Knicks got their preseason campaigns underway on Monday. It didn’t take long for things to get chippy. During the second quarter, Markieff Morris and Mitchell Robinson exchanged words face-to-face, resulting in a double technical fouls.

A few seconds later, Morris picked up another technical foul and was subsequently ejected.

Morris looks to be in midseason form already. In 73 games last season, he received 13 technical fouls, which was good for fifth in the NBA.
