Caleb Martin, Christian Koloko ejected for fight during Heat-Raptors game

Caleb Martin got physical with Christian Koloko during the third quarter of Saturday night’s Miami Heat-Toronto Raptors game.

The two players were fighting for a rebound after a Bam Adebayo missed shot, and the ball went out of bounds. Martin was upset with something and got into Koloko’s face. The next thing you knew, Martin was shooting on Koloko like they were in the octagon and tackled the Raptors forward.

The officials handed out double-technical fouls, and both players were ejected.

Martin had eight points in 22 minutes prior to his ejection, while Koloko had one point in 12 minutes.

Raptors fans already were upset with Martin over a hard foul on Scottie Barnes last season. Now they can add this to Martin’s growing list of offenses.
