The shoving match occurred during the third game of a three-game Jazz homestand. The team will retake the floor Saturday afternoon against the Miami Heat.
The Jazz have lost three of their last four games after falling to the Pacers on Thursday. The team lost back-to-back games to the Heat and the Orlando Magic last weekend before snapping the mini losing streak against the Atlanta Hawks to open the homestand on Tuesday.
The team will have two days off after facing the Heat before hosting the Philadelphia 76ers and Toronto Raptors to complete the extended homestay.
