The brawl, which extended into the courtside crowd, resulted in three ejections for the Wolves — Reid, DiVincenzo and assistant coach Pablo Prigioni — and four for the Pistons — Holland, Marcus Sasser, Isaiah Stewart and head coach J.B. Bickerstaff. It came with 8:36 remaining in the second quarter while Detroit held a 39-29 lead over the Timberwolves.
There is likely a possibility of suspensions for several players, including DiVincenzo and Holland, who initiated the conflict. The Wolves have seven regular-season games remaining after Sunday. The game was still in progress at publication time.
This is a developing story. More information will be added as it becomes available.
