Report: Wizards' Montrezl Harrell, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope get in physical altercation at halftime
Washington Wizards center Montrezl Harrell and guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope got into a physical altercation at halftime of Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, reports The Athletic.
According to the report, the two had to be separated by teammates after Harrell got upset with Caldwell-Pope for not passing the ball. It led to an exchange of words and punches being thrown.
Caldwell-Pope scored 16 points and Harrell added 12 points in Washington's 122-118 win over the Thunder.
Caldwell-Pope and Harrell were traded to the Wizards in July as part of the deal that sent All-Star guard Russell Westbrook to the Los Angeles Lakers.
