Tristan Thompson was given a technical foul after things got chippy between him and Patrick Patterson in the opening quarter of the Cleveland Cavaliers-Toronto Raptors Game 4.
Tristan Thompson earns technical foul after shoulder-ramming Patrick Patterson
This escalated quickly.
It started as the two fought for positioning, and the frustration led Thompson to lower his shoulder into Patterson’s thighs and throw him.
That didn’t warrant the technical, but a final bump on his way to the bench did.
Things could get interesting later in this one as tensions rise with the Raptors fighting for their playoff lives.
