MANILA, Philippines—Safe to say that two-time NBA All-Star Isaiah Thomas would’ve also chased down Calvin Abueva the same way Terrence Jones did after he got clotheslined by the Phoenix Fuel Masters forward.
The video of the scuffle involving Abueva and Jones during the game between Phoenix and TNT on Sunday was shared by NBA on ESPN on its Twitter account that has over six million followers, including Thomas.

The Denver Nuggets point guard tweeted again to clear that he was referring to Abueva, who went on to dance on the scorer’s table on his way out of the court after he got thrown out.
T Jones my dude. I’m talking the other dude https://t.co/EI7BLv7rX7

Thomas is listed at 5-foot-9 but is known to be one of the fiercest competitors in the league.
Abueva has been suspended indefinitely and fined P70,000 by the PBA.
Jones, who played seven seasons in the NBA before being tapped as TNT import, was also fined P70,000.
