Basket-brawl as five ejected in Pistons-Hornets clash

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA — Jalen Duren #0 of the Detroit Pistons and Moussa Diabate #14 of the Charlotte Hornets fight during the second half of a basketball game at Spectrum Center on February 09, 2026 in Charlotte, North Carolina. AGENCE FRANCE PRESSE

A bruising clash between the Eastern Conference-leading Pistons and the red-hot Hornets erupted into mayhem midway through the third quarter when Charlotte's Moussa Diabate fouled Detroit's Jalen Duren.

Diabate and Duren went forehead-to-forehead, and Duren angrily shoved his opponent away with a hand to the face.

That was the cue for a melee that saw scuffles and punches being thrown all over the court.

After a delay of several minutes, the officiating crew ejected Duren and Detroit teammate Isaiah Stewart along with Charlotte pair Diabate and Miles Bridges.

Stewart had sprinted off the bench to join the fight, attempting to aim a blow at Bridges, who had thrown a punch at Duren as tempers flared.
