Blazers’ Meyers Leonard & Sixers’ Daniel Orton Ejected Following Scuffle [Video]

The Portland Trailblazers continued their dominant play on Saturday night in Philadelphia, blowing out the 76’ers with a record breaking 21-three-pointers. With the game firmly under the Blazers control in the fourth quarter, both teams emptied their bench which allows players who don’t see that much court time to get some run.

 

Blazers’ Meyers Leonard and Sixers’ Daniel Orton were ejected during the fourth quarter. The scuffle started as Orton tried to back down Leonard in the post. The two got tangled up and Leonard threw Orton to the ground. Orton of course got heated and threw a little elbow which connected to Meyers jaw. The two had to be separated and were both ejected from the game.

 

Blazers win 139-105.
