There was nothing at stake in Wednesday night's matchup between the two worst teams in the WNBA but tempers still flared midway through the second quarter of the Connecticut Sun's 71-62 win over the Chicago Sky, leading to ejections for Rebecca Allen, Ariel Atkins and Bria Hartley .

Connecticut’s Bria Harley and Chicago’s Rebecca Allen each received ejections for starting the scuffle, while the Sky’s Ariel Atkins’ night ended early “for being an escalator” after shoving Hartley and touching a referee, according to crew chief Angelia Suffern as reported by ESPN.
