A huge brawl took place during Friday night's NBA game between the Miami Heat and the New Orleans Pelicans.

Player of the Game Jimmy  Butler EFF 30 Jimmy Butler Points 23 Accuracy 7-12 Rebounds 9 Assists 6

With 11:19 to go in the fourth quarter, Miami's Kevin Love made a hard foul against New Orleans' Zion Williamson. The two players initially walked away, but the action started when Naji Marshall and Jimmy Butler got involved.

Namely, Marshall started shoving Butler, both wings even got their hands on each other's necks, and a massive scuffle ensued. It took around 10 seconds to calm down, but the second wave arrived just moments later.

Miami's Thomas Bryant got into a conflict with Pelicans' Jose Alvarado, who were both not on the court when Love's foul against Williamson took place. The two players had to be separated by their teammates.

One fan was seen throwing stuff at the players while Alvarado and Bryant were being separated.

Marshall, Alvarado, Bryant, and Butler were all ejected.
