I officially proclaim this “Ejection Week” in the NBA as two of the league biggest stars got ejected for the first time in their careers in consecutive nights.

Anthony Davis had a good Sunday night. Okay, fine: He had one of the best Sunday nights in the history of Sunday nights. First, he dropped 52 points during the Western Conference’s 192-182 All-Star Game victory over the Eastern Conference, breaking Wilt Chamberlain’s previous record of 42 points.
