A free-for-all erupted near the away bench near the end of the third quarter.
After seeing two Magic players taunt his failed attempt from downtown, fullback Austin Rivers landed several shots at Mo Bamba.
Youngster Jalen Suggs came to his defense by knocking Rivers down, drawing the wrath of ‘T-Wolves’ fans.
At the end of this scuffle, five players were expelled from the meeting. Bamba and Suggs were sidelined at Magic, while Rivers, Jaden McDaniels and Taurean Prince suffered the same fate at the hosts.
