The game was paused as a team came over to wipe up the wet spots. Ingram sat on the bench and watched the staff, including the man he punched in the face, clean up the mess he made.

It was unclear whether Ingram apologized for the outburst.

He had 21 points and eight rebounds in 37 minutes as the 76ers won the game, 130-120.
