Game 2 of the Monaco-Barcelona series featured a third-quarter scuffle, multiple fouls, and high emotions on both sides.
After Tomas Satoransky's ejection in Game 1 and a heated exchange involving Matthew Strazel and Mike James, tensions flared again in the AS Monaco–FC Barcelona playoff series.
With 3:16 left in the third quarter and Monaco up 67–53 in Game 2, things escalated when Justin Anderson shoved Alpha Diallo.
A verbal confrontation followed, and Jaron Blossomgame stepped in, pushing Anderson. Several players got involved, exchanging words as teammates tried to separate them.
The referees handed out multiple penalties: Anderson and Blossomgame were called for unsportsmanlike fouls, while Kevin Punter and Diallo received technical fouls.
Monaco won Game 1 97–80 and also secured Game 2 victory 92-79 to be one step from Abu Dhabi.
