After the 76ers’ heated dispute with Drummond, the Magic’s proposal was dropped

PHILADELPHIA — Orlando Magic’s Jalen Suggs was ejected with 27 seconds left in the first half of Tuesday night’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers after receiving two technicals during a heated argument between the teams.

Philadelphia’s Andre Drummond and Orlando’s Wendell Carter Jr. faced off near the Magic’s free-throw line, though no punches were thrown.

Suggs comes in and punches Drummond. Philadelphia’s Jabari Walker got between the players, and the Saugs then took issue with Walker and there was more pushing and shoving.

Drummond, Carter, Parker, and Orlando’s Desmond Bean received technical fouls, while the Saugs received two.

The Magic dominated the second quarter, outscoring Philadelphia by 26 points to take an 86-60 lead into the break.
