Teague tossed after hip-check on Jazz's Rubio

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague was ejected in the fourth quarter of Friday's game at Utah after he hip-checked Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio and was called for a flagrant foul 2.

Teague was chasing Rubio down the court when he lowered his shoulder and bumped Rubio into the Minnesota bench. He was tossed with 5:20 remaining in the game.

Timberwolves forward Jimmy Butler, who is sidelined due to surgery on his right knee, approved of Teague's fiery play.

haven't used Twitter in years. But yeah Jeff that's what I like to see. Rubio getting up quick for no reason.

Timberwolves forward Karl-Anthony Towns also was ejected just before halftime when he was called for his second technical foul…
