A game between the Orlando Magic and Memphis Grizzlies broke out into a scuffle.

Matt Barnes was called for an offensive foul for pushing off on Memphis center Hasheem Thabeet with 6:54 remaining in the third quarter Sunday.

Barnes got up to protest the call and bumped Thabeet, who shoved Barnes, who came back with an even harder push square in the center's chest.

A shoving match ensued with nearly all 10 players involved near the baseline. Memphis coach Lionel Hollins came off the bench near the scrum to help break it up.

Barnes was called for two technicals and ejected, and teammate Vince Carter was assessed a technical. Thabeet and Grizzlies guard O.J. Mayo were whistled for a technical each.
