It all started after Kendrick Nunn’s fourth foul on Sasha Vezenkov and ended with a punch from Tyrique Jones to Nunn.
Panathinaikos forward went over to the 31-year-old Bulgarian power forward to protest “flopping,” and Tyrique Jones rushed to defend his teammate.
Nunn and Jones came face to face and then head to head, with Tyrique Jones grabbing Nunn by the throat and pushing him away.
As a result both players were ejected just before the end of the third period of the Greek League Finals Game 5, which ended with Olympiacos winning the championship title.

“What is this? They came to the locker room to hit him. What is this?”, Panathinaikos coach Ergin Ataman said after the game.
Of course, Tyrique Jones is expected to be punished.
