Don’t tell Amen Thompson and Jose Alvarado preseason games don’t count … ’cause the two NBAers had to be pulled apart from each other during a fight in the Rockets vs. Pelicans matchup!!
Things got physical in the second quarter of the contest at Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama … when the two guards battled for a rebound.
Alvarado started to lose his balance in his attempt and grabbed Thompson’s jersey to break his fall. Thompson tried to push him off … but Alvarado kept tugging away, forcing him to collapse — irking him in the process.
When Thompson got back up, he violently shoved Alvarado … and things got testy for a couple of seconds before their teammates broke them up.
As a result, Thompson was hit with a flagrant 1, while Alvarado received a technical foul.
Thompson and Alvarado ultimately made peace after the game with a couple of handshakes and hugs.
Hopefully it stays cordial … as the Rockets and Pelicans face each other several times when the games actually count– starting with their first matchup onDecember 18.
