LeBron James is known for keeping a relatively cool mind both on and off the court.
But, on Sunday, James got kicked from the game for his involvement in a rather brutal and intense altercation during the game.
It happened late in the third quarter after James elbowed Pistons player Isaiah Stewart in the face.

James was promptly ejected from the game and, for the first time in his career, faces the possibility of a suspension.
No doubt, things could have gotten way worse for both teams, as it seems a repeat of the infamous “Malice at the Palace” incident was on the verge of breaking out.
Needles to say, it’s an ongoing situation that is still not yet over.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated as the story develops.
