In the game against the Phoenix Suns, Thompson got into a verbal altercation with Devin Booker. At first, the referees gave a double technical for both players.

However, Thompson didn't cool off and moments later was given a second technical foul, resulting in an ejection.

Thompson finished the game with 2 points (1/3 2PT, 0/5 3PT), 2 assists, and 1 block in 19 minutes of playing time.

He shot 0 for 4, including 0 for 3 from the 3-point range, with Booker as his primary defender, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
