Watch: Mason Plumlee, Derrick Favors ejected for fight

Mason Plumlee and Derrick Favors were ejected after getting into a fight late in the first quarter of Wednesday night’s Utah Jazz-Denver Nuggets game.

Plumlee grabbed an offensive rebound following a Will Barton miss and got tangled up with Favors under the basket. Favors appeared to foul him as Plumlee went up for a shot. The two then exchanged words followed by shoves.

Multiple players and coaches stepped in to try and separate the players. Replay also showed players leaving the Nuggets’ bench, which was very close to where the fight took place. Nikola Jokic and Gary Harris could be facing suspensions for leaving the bench.

In addition to ejections for Plumlee and Favors, Jae Crowder and Will Barton received double-technical fouls.
