Former New York Knicks shooter Evan Fournier was ejected from France's pre-Olympic showdown with Germany.
Thanks in part to the involvement of a former New York Knick, a pre-Olympic basketball exhibition between France and Germany was anything but friendly.
Former Knicks shooter Evan Fournier was at the center of an altercation when the two European sides met in Cologne. During late second period action, Fournier engaged in a heated tangle-up with current Brooklyn Net Dennis Schroder on a drive. Schroder appeared to go for Fournier's neck in the aftermath but Fournier got to his first, leading both sides to get in each other's faces.
Fournier's NBA future is in flux after his New York tenure mercifully ended with a trade to the Detroit Pistons at last season's deadline. The 31-year-old averaged 7.2 points in 29 appearances after the deal but Detroit opted not to pick up the option on his contract, making him a free agent.
