\n\t\t\tKnicks center Mitchell Robinson and Hawks guard Dyson Daniels were ejected from Thursday\u2019s Game 6 matchup between the two teams, tweets Fred Katz of The Athletic.
\nThe two players got tangled up during a free throw attempt by OG Anunoby with 4:39 left in the second quarter (YouTube link). There was some pushing back and forth, with several Knicks employees \u2014 including head coach Mike Brown \u2014 attempting to restrain Robinson near the sideline.
\nAfter the scuffle cleared, the officials conducted a review, which led to both players receiving technical fouls and ejections.
\nNew York was up a stunning 50 points at the time, dominating Atlanta in every facet of the game. The Knicks\u2019 47-point halftime lead was the largest in NBA playoff history, per ESPN research (Twitter link).
\nAs Katz observes, Daniels and Robinson had been going at each other throughout the series. Robinson received an unsportsmanlike technical in Game 2, when he committed an offensive foul on Daniels and then walked over the Australian guard was on the ground (YouTube link).
\nWhile I\u2019d be surprised if Robinson receives a suspension for Thursday\u2019s incident, his status is at least worth monitoring for Game 1 of New York\u2019s next playoff series. The Knicks will face the winner of Boston vs. Philadelphia in the Eastern Conference semifinals.<\/p>\n
