An on-court scuffle during the Chicago Bulls-Houston Rockets game on Thursday night involving multiple players resulted in star players DeMar DeRozan and Dillon Brooks both being ejected. Houston ultimately won the game, 127-117. The clash took place in the third quarter, with 6:02 remaining and the Rockets leading 84-75.
