During and after a matchup between two struggling NBA teams, a war of words erupted between the Memphis Grizzlies ' Ja Morant and the Dallas Mavericks ' Klay Thompson.
The incident occurred in Dallas, where the Grizzlies, playing without Morant due to injury, defeated the Mavericks, 102-96. Morant began jawing at Thompson after the buzzer sounded, prompting officials, security personnel, and coaches to intervene before it escalated further.
Morant continued his jabs at the multi-time All-Star and four-time NBA Champion during his teammate Cam Spencer's postgame interview. Spencer, playing 24 minutes off the bench, finished with 17 points on 6-for-10 shooting, including three of five three-pointers.
