HOUSTON (AP) --- Los Angeles Lakers center Deandre Ayton was ejected in the
third quarter of Game 4 on Sunday night against the Houston Rockets after
receiving a flagrant foul 2 for hitting Alperen Sengun in the face with his
elbow and forearm.
A foul was called after Ayton hit Sengun when he had the ball and was heading
toward the basket with about 5 minutes left in the third quarter. The play was
reviewed and upgraded to a flagrant foul 2 and Ayton was ejected.
The referee announcing the foul called the contact "unnecessary and excessive."
The Lakers, who lead the series 3-0, trailed 76-57 at the time of the foul.
Ayton led the team with 19 points and 10 rebounds when he was ejected.
