The Biggest Teammate Fights in Basketball History

**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
NBA teammates fight over the pettiest things, like being called a bitch, or getting slapped on the cheeks.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:08)
Fists are flying at the other end.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:11)
But first, Kyle Anderson had Rudy Gobert swinging.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:14)
And we got a scuffle on the Timberwolves' bitch.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:17)
Now, those weren't the only two fighting, because Mason Plumlee and Bones Hyland squared up mid-game.

**SPEAKER_5** (0:22)
Plumlee clearly not happy with what had occurred.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:26)
But nobody is going to step to Jalen Brunson, because one slap to the ass, and he whipped out a tap.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:33)
Let the guys be guys, first leg.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:35)
But look, when teammates get heated, anything can happen. That man was ready to throw hands, and so was his next one. Because when DeAndre Jordan thought the play was over, Chris Paul was having a meltdown.

**SPEAKER_5** (0:52)
Here's Paul. Paul gets it off, banks it up and out. Halfway down.

**SPEAKER_6** (0:58)
Jordan had time. He stopped.

**SPEAKER_7** (0:59)
Jordan had time to put it back up.

**SPEAKER_6** (1:02)
The clock stopped.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:03)
No one loves it more when teammates fight, but the opposing team. So when the heat were at each other's throats, Joe Kim Noah gave them a round of applause.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:11)
Now watch Joe Kim Noah come into the picture. These two going at it. Noah's watching them, and he now starts to enjoy it.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:20)
Noah would pay to see a heat meltdown, but Draymond doesn't even need a game to get violent, as he was bullying Nick Young during a shoot around. Yeah, teammates have to chill. I mean, when Chris Paul was trying to motivate James Harden, he got smacked.
Yeah, they broke up just weeks after that, but one NBA legend wasn't tolerating any disrespect from his teammates, because when they put hands on Patrick Ewing, he put them all in check.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:48)
O'Neal draws the foul. It's on Ewing who is being rescreened by teammates.
And does not want to hear it from John Starks. Oh, John Starks receiving a lecture from Patrick Ewing.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:10)
Dude was ready to fight the whole stadium, but teammates are always looking for beef, because Desmond Bayne was caught shoving his own teammate. Man, I would not want to beef with the T-Rex army, and I don't want to beef with Jimmy Butler either. I mean, it don't matter if it's the coach, reporters, or teammates. This guy has smoked for everyone.
Man, Jimmy stays juiced up, but so is Kobe Bryant, only he does it with his mind, because he used practice to put his wingman to the test.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:54)
Here we go.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:55)
As a matter of fact, put your hands off me.

**Glenn Davis** (2:56)
Don't touch me or I'll strip you.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:57)
All right, let's do it.

**Glenn Davis** (2:58)
Put your hands off me.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:59)
Kobe was wise, but you could say the same for this next player, because during the game between the Lakers and the Bulls, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen had to wrestle Dennis Rodman to the ground.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:09)
And Kersi knocks the ball away. Be careful.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:12)
Here comes O'Neal.

**SPEAKER_7** (3:13)
And I tell you what, Scottie and Michael are saying, Dennis, you're not getting it anything right now.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:20)
It really takes the team to keep Rodman contained, but the Bucks have all the real wrestling news. I mean, they turned their pregame warmup into the WWE. Who needs stretchers when you got suplexes? But look, teammates fighting can also end careers. Cause during the game between the Suns and the Lakers, Dwight Howard and Anthony Davis got into a way too heated argument.

**SPEAKER_10** (4:03)
Yes, Anthony Davis goes over and it's the same something to Dwight, and I don't know what happens from there. They end up shoving one another.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:10)
I mean, fights like this happen all the time, but that specific moment put Dwight's career on thin ice.

**Dwight Howard** (4:15)
Even last year, the thing with AD was blown out of proportion, and I felt like that was wrong for the people to twist it and turn it like it was me and them not knowing what was really going on and how we ended up getting that out the way. I just felt like all that was it was messed up. So now it's put me in a position like I'm in now where teams may feel like we don't know about Dwight.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:35)
Superman hasn't found another team since, but one little dude was brave enough to try Shaq. See, the Magic had just lost the game and Shaq spent the night partying with Magic Johnson. So the next day at practice, Scott Skyles was ready for the big man.
