This is the kind of chaos that has you glued to the screen … insanity!

In the third quarter of the Detroit Pistons-Charlotte Hornets game Monday night, a brawl ended up breaking out and the scene is pure bananas. A total of four players were ejected as a result of the fight.

Forward Moussa Diabate and forward Miles Bridges were ejected on the Hornets’ side, while the Pistons saw center Jalen Duren and forward Isaiah Stewart tossed. Charles Lee, the head coach of Charlotte, was later ejected during fourth quarter action after being restrained from charging toward a referee regarding a call.

With a little more than seven minutes remaining in the third quarter, Duren was fouled by Diabate while driving into the paint. After the former turned around, the two then got face to face, seemingly butting heads in the process. Eventually, Duren pushed Diabate’s head, and from there, all hell broke loose. It was so crazy that the police even had to get involved.(RELATED: Olympic Athletes Are Being Warned Not To Celebrate With Their Medals Too Much Because They’re Breaking)

While Diabate was being held back by Detroit forward Tobias Harris, Diabate tried to punch Duren, who walked away from the scene. However, Bridges ran after him and tossed a punch, with Duren retaliating with his own. Diabate tried to charge once again at Duren, but was held back.

To make the scene even wackier, Stewart got involved by exiting the bench for a confrontation with Bridges, with the latter throwing a punch at his opponent. From there, the two wrestled. In one portion of the chaos, Stewart had Bridges headlocked and punched him over and over again on the head.

It was chaos, absolutely beautiful chaos.
