Kris Dunn, the Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard, was ejected in Tuesday night's NBA matchup with the Lakers after being assessed two technical fouls in the fourth quarter. Dunn's ejection came after he pushed Luka Dončić, who fell to the ground, igniting an altercation. Lakers center Jaxson Hayes came over and gave Dunn a shove, resulting in a technical foul for Hayes. Dunn finished the game with a season-high 19 points, but the Clippers lost to the Lakers 135-118, their fifth win in a row. The loss dropped the Clippers to 5-13, while the Lakers improved to 13-4. Dončić finished with 43 points, his fifth 40-point game of the season. Dunn's ejection was a result of a heated exchange between the two players, with Dončić stating after the game that he was not going to stand for a 'cheap shot' in his back. The referee was present and did not call a foul on the play, but Dončić expressed his frustration with the decision. The game was a physical one, with both teams engaging in trash talking and physical play. Dunn's ejection was a significant moment in the game, and it highlighted the intensity of the rivalry between the Lakers and the Clippers.
