The Los Angeles Lakers’ Wayne Ellington threatened to fight Denver Nuggets’ Facundo Campazzo following his flagrant foul on Sunday.
While Ellington had one of his best games of the season, he was pushed by Campazzo during the second quarter. The Nuggets guard was hit with a Flagrant 2 foul and ejected from the game, but judging by Ellington’s postgame tweet, he’s not ready to let bygones be bygones.
“When I see you I’m putting my hands on you @facucampazzo,” he tweeted following the game.
Campazzo has yet to respond to the threat.
As you can see the clip below, Ellington hit Wenyen Gabriel’s leg on his way down from the push. Though he was on the court floor for a little bit, Ellington was able to get back up and finish the game.
Ellington’s threat isn’t the only Lakers headline to emerge following the game on Sunday. Not long after the Lakers concluded their season, ESPN’S Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Lakers head coach Frank Vogel would no longer be with the team.
It is expected that the Lakers will begin an extensive search for a replacement, if the report is true.
