Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony was ejected from Sunday night's game against the Trail Blazers after being called for a Flagrant-2 foul in the third quarter.
Anthony appeared to get swiped in the face by Maurice Harkless without a foul call, but he was able to shake it off and drive to the basket where he was met by Jusuf Nurkic, Portland's 7-0, 280-pound center.
Anthony's elbow appeared to inadvertently hit Nurkic in the shoulder, dropping the big man to the floor in pain.
Anthony was ejected as a result of the play, much to the chagrin of Thunder fans and even Rockets point guard Chris Paul.
That’s not a flagrant 2...
