New York Knicks center Enes Kanter was ejected during their 112-96 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday night. However, Kanter was not even aware that he got tossed in the heated match in Milwaukee.

Kanter learned that he was ejected when he was asked about getting a second technical foul during a post-game interview. The 26-year-old center looked surprised with the question about getting a second technical foul. But when the reporter repeated the question, the veteran center realized that he got booted out of the game.

Enes Kanter figured in a heated tussle with Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo. Kanter and Giannis went forehead-to-forehead at center court before cooler heads prevailed.

Enes Kanter went to the locker room following the incident. Little did he know, he got tossed. Based on his reaction, he thought he was just sent to the locker room to have the cut above his eye stitched.
