Players are not allowed to leave their bench, but once the fight started, many from the Orlando side ran over to help out Wagner, causing a large skirmish. 

Luckily, it was not a "Malice in the Palace" situation, as the PA announcer can be heard urging fans to stay in their seats as to not further escalate anything.

When things settled during the game and referees deliberated, Wagner was issued a Flagrant Foul 2 and got ejected from the game. However, Hayes and Diallo were also sent into the locker room for an early shower.
