What happened: Washington Wizards guard Trae Young and Detroit Pistons guard Daniss Jenkins were ejected for extracurriculars. The double ejection occurred during the third quarter of their ongoing preseason matchup.

Why it matters: The incident forces both clubs to utilize their reserves earlier than planned. Young is adjusting to a new system in Washington, while Jenkins is battling for backcourt minutes.

By the numbers: The Wizards hold a 74-73 advantage over the Pistons as the game continues.

What to watch: The league office will review the incident to determine if further discipline is warranted. Both teams must navigate the remainder of the exhibition with altered rotations.
