“I f**ked Up” – WATCH: Referee ejects Andre Drummond and Joel Embiid, then recalls Drummond in bizarre 76ers-Spurs incident

A second-quarter commotion between Victor Wembanyama and Andre Drummond added a series of controversies in the NBA‘s Monday evening contest between the Philadelphia 76ers and the San Antonio Spurs.

The whole controversial sequence started during the second quarter with 8:13 left. San Antonio center Victor Wembanyama fell to the floor and referee Jenna Schroeder called technical fouls on Sixers center Andre Drummond. This foul led to his ejection despite making no contacts with Wembanyama.

The Philadelphia center made his way back to the locker room but a review of the play allowed him to make a return. The referee accepted that she was wrong to call a second technical foul on him and the foul on Drummond was reversed.

76ers fans cheered for Andre Drummond when he made a dramatic comeback from the Wells Fargo Center’s tunnel. However, the referee Jenna Schroeder was feeling the heat of the game. Philadelphia’s coach lost his cool after giving a foul on Drummond and he asked for a review. “I f****d up,” the referee can be heard telling Nick Nurse on the sidelines.

Joel Embiid gets ejected after losing it at referee

Meanwhile, the 76ers-Spurs game had a few more technical fouls in a controversial sequence. During the third quarter, the referee called a foul on Joel Embiid. The seven-time All-Star ran over to Jenna Schroeder and got in her face, which led to a technical foul. She gave him another technical foul shortly after arguing.

Amid all the drama at Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia escaped from the defeat. Tyrese Maxey scored 32 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists while Paul George had 19. Joel Embiid came back to celebrate the win at the end of the buzzer time.
