The full altercation:
Footage from the crowd shows just how close Stewart got to taking on the entire Lakers team. Somewhere Enes Kanter is smiling while watching someone else do his dirty work.
Stewart was obviously ejected as well, but he did his job getting the Lakers’ best player out of the game. Now it’ll be up to his teammates to do the rest.
