There are going to be some fines handed down for this one.
The Raptors Christian Koloko and Heat’s Caleb Martin were ejected from Saturday’s game after a fight for rebounding position turned into a scuffle that fell into the first row of seats.

The fight started with 7:46 left in the third quarter when Pascal Siakam took a corner 3 and Martin and Koloko were fighting for rebounding position. The two got tangled up, Koloko went to the ground, Martin came over and stood over him, Koloko quickly bounced back up, the Martin took it to the next level tackling the Raptors’ big man into the first row.
Both men were called for technicals and ejected. Martin also picked up a foul on the play. Both will end up paying fines for this, but Martin’s should be steeper.
Miami held on for a 112-109 win in a game they led comfortably much of the way. It’s the first win of the season for the Heat.
