Jaylen Brown lashes out at official following his first ejection

Jaylen Brown has expressed his frustration for match official, who ejected him during Boston Celtics’s 133-123 win over the New York Knicks.

The star guard was hit with a pair of technical fouls in less than a minute after arguing with a referee over a foul call in the fourth quarter.

"I wish I would've got my moneys worth… I'm on the bench, he can't hear what I'm saying. He called a tech from across the court. "

After the game the 27-year-old shared that what infuriated him the most was that it wasn’t worth it at all.

“I always thought my first career ejection would be something a little more exciting,” Brown said. “Maybe a tussle or something, guys get folded up, go to the ground. Not some overemotional ref who had a bad day. What I’m most upset about is that I should’ve gotten my money’s worth.”

Prior to the second technical foul, Brown had 17 points along with four assists, one steal and one block in 27 minutes.
