Jokic ejected after late confrontation with McDaniels as Nuggets lose Game 4

In Game 4 of the Nuggets–Timberwolves playoff series, Nikola Jokic was ejected after sprinting across the court to confront Jaden McDaniels with 1.3 seconds left, and Julius Randle was also tossed as Minnesota held on for a 112-96 win. McDaniels had just scored a late uncontested layup, prompting tempers to flare as players from both teams joined the fray; Jokic said he confronted McDaniels because he scored and “everybody stopped playing,” highlighting a heated end to a lopsided series heading to the next game.
