Raptors Coach Darko Rajakovic Ejected After Heated Confrontation With Referee

Rajakovic's outburst during the fourth quarter against the Grizzlies stemmed from frustration over a non-call on Scottie Barnes' drive.

Toronto Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic was ejected in the fourth quarter of a game against the Memphis Grizzlies after a profane outburst directed at referee J.T. Orr.
The incident was triggered by Rajakovic's belief that Scottie Barnes was fouled on a contested layup, which led to a Grizzlies score in transition.
Rajakovic repeatedly yelled expletives at the officials and had to be restrained by players and assistants before leaving the court.
The Raptors, currently enduring a difficult season with a 7-24 record, ultimately lost the game 155-126, marking a franchise scoring record for the Grizzlies.
This is not Rajakovic's first confrontation with officials; he was fined $25,000 earlier this year for similar behavior after a game.
