On Thursday night, the Minnesota Timberwolves are playing the Los Angeles Lakers in California.

During the second half, All-Star guard Anthony Edwards was ejected.

Via ESPN's Dave McMenamin: "The referees just ejected Anthony Edwards in the 3rd Q with LAL up 74-59. On his way to the locker room, Edwards tossed the ball into the stands, which will cost him a further penalty by the league."
