On Tuesday, the NBA transformed into a boxing event. Two fights occurred in two different games. There was a bench-clearing fight between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the New Orleans Pelicans.
The fight was between Lu Dort of OKC and Jeremiah Fears of the Pelicans.

Fears was still visibly upset, even as he headed back to the locker room.

The second fight occurred in the Phoenix Suns vs. Brooklyn Nets game. The players involved were the Nets’ Egor Demin and (of course) Dillon Brooks of the Suns.

The fight caused assistant coaches to clear their benches. Still, it was pretty calm, especially since Brooks was involved.
It was a fight night in the NBA!
