Ja Morant, Desmond Bane and Donovan Mitchell were among the players assessed technical fouls during a scuffle in the third quarter.

After Mitchell gained possession of a loose ball, Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane jumped on him to fight for a jump ball. Unfortunately, the action did not stop there. As the two wrestled for the ball, even well after the whistle, tempers flared in front of the Cavaliers bench, causing a huge commotion.

That heated moment, a little more than four minutes into the third quarter, was the inflection point in a fiery, competitive battle between two of the league’s best teams.
