Indiana center Roy Hibbert was ejected and four other players received technical fouls Tuesday night after a skirmish between the Pacers and the visiting Golden State Warriors spilled into the seats behind the baseline.

The Warriors' David Lee, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson also were called for technicals, along with Indiana forward David West.

It began when Lee and Hibbert exchanged shoves under the basket after a missed shot with 6 minutes, 10 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Curry tried to push Hibbert away and was shoved to the court as the fight went from the key to the foul line. The Pacers won, 108-97.
