Watch: 76ers fans ejected after exchange with Lakers' Carmelo Anthony
In the fourth quarter of a blowout loss against the Philadelphia 76ers, the Los Angeles Lakers' Carmelo Anthony got into a heated exchange with a couple of 76ers fans who were heckling the veteran.
According to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, the taunts had racial undertones with the fan repeatedly calling Anthony “boy.” The fan was yelling "get in the corner boy" and "keeping shooting boy," per Haynes' report.
The 76ers won 105-87 with Joel Embiid leading the way for Philadelphia with 26 points. The Lakers were without LeBron James who sat with knee soreness.
The Lakers' Anthony Davis led all scoring with 31 points and 12 rebounds. Anthony added nine points and three rebounds.
