Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns got into a messy fight during the Philadelphia 76ers-Minnesota Timberwolves game on Wednesday.

The two were in a heated battle midway through the third quarter, and things started to get physical leading to the altercation.

Both players were ejected due to the fight. Amusingly, Joel Embiid raised his hands before heading to the locker room while Sixers fans gave him the ā€œMVPā€ chant.

JoJo finished the game with 19 points, five rebounds and two assists. Meanwhile, Karl-Anthony Towns ended up with 13 markers, six boards and one dime.

Towns' ejection was a huge blow for the Timberwolves, especially after being just named the Western Conference Player of the Week.
