Three players were ejected after a clash between the Orlando Magic’s Moe Wagner and Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes sparked a bench-clearing brawl
on Wednesday. It certainly wasn’t anywhere near the antagonism of the infamous “Malice at the Palace” during the Detroit game against the Indiana Pacers in 2004, but the incident still saw Wagner tossed for a flagrant foul and Hayes and teammate Hamidou Diallo ejected for their part in the melee that followed. With the incident taking place on top of the Pistons bench, a number of players on the Magic roster could be suspended for leaving their bench area to join the scuffle.
Wagner appeared to throw out an elbow that caused Hayes to fall into the Detroit bench. Hayes got back to his feet and threw a punch at the back of Wagner’s head, which appeared to leave the German forward unconscious. “He’s fine,” Franz Wagner, Moe’s younger brother, told reporters, per ESPN. “I haven’t seen the video, but I know that’s the last thing he wanted to do.
