AMIR JOHNSON OF the Toronto Raptors is facing a fine from the NBA after flipping out during their game with the Portland Trail Blazers last night.
The forward caught the ball after a Portland free throw and was ejected from the court after getting into a tussle with referee David Jones. He wasn’t going to leave without a fight, however, and chucked his mouthguard at Jones – hitting him on the back.
I guess the ref didn’t let me have the ball so we kind of got into a tug of war,” Johnson told CBC. “No words were really said and he ejected me out of the game and I kind of lost my cool from there.”
