Rudy Gobert-Myles Turner confrontation leads to 4 ejections in Pacers-Jazz

Four players' nights ended early in Thursday's game between the Indiana Pacers and Utah Jazz, and the confrontation at the center can be charitably described as an attempt at a Greco-Roman wrestling match.

The fun started with around four minutes left in the fourth quarter, when Pacers center Myles Turner blocked a lay-up from Rudy Gobert. Gobert was knocked off-balance by the contact, and decided to take Turner down with him by grabbing his shorts.

An incensed Turner shoved Gobert as the two got to their feet and began running down the floor.
