Though the halftime brawl between Shannon Sharpe and Tee Morant took center stage, the duo eventually hugged it out at the end of the third quarter.
What happened at halftime?
During the halftime of the Friday night game, Sharpe was seen shouting at the Grizzlies star Steve Adams and Tee Morant from the courtside. The shouting soon turned into a heated argument between Sharpe and the Grizzlies. Eventually, the authorities stepped in to momentarily take the NFL legend away from the scene. Talking to ESPN, Sharpe said, “It started with Dillon Brooks. I said he was too small to guard LeBron. He said, F— me. I said ‘F— you’ back. He started to come at me and I said, ‘You don’t want these problems.”
