He had received the initial technical foul in the first quarter for using profanity towards the referees. “And he was ejected from the game, per rule, because two unsportsmanlike technical fouls, you are ejected from the game.”The official National Basketball Association (NBA) rulebook says: “If a player blatantly taunts an opponent, a technical foul shall be assessed. The ejection also drew headlines given the NBA’s recent commitment to ensuring its star players are on the court as much as possible. Before his ejection, Antetokounmpo contributed 15 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and three blocks.
