Schroder initially engaged in a one-on-one conversation with Daniel Theis, seemingly disregarding what coach Gordon Herbert had to say during a timeout.

Later, the Canadian-Finnish coach tried to get Schroder to sit down by grabbing him, but the Toronto Raptors player remained standing, continuing their verbal exchange.

Despite this turn of events, Schroder returned to the court with his teammates following the timeout.
