Conflict broke out in BIG3 field! Stephenson and Howard fight, both were expelled

On June 15, a shocking conflict broke out on the court in the BIG3 League Miami 305 team vs. Los Angeles Riot team. Master Huo and his junior brother hugged each other, and no one was holding a fight. All those who came over were carrying cameras, shooting at multiple cameras and from multiple angles. In the game, former NBA player Stephenson and Howard confronted each other and scolded each other, then Stephenson raised his elbow and Howard pushed his hand away. The two instantly became furious and wrestled together. Howard clamped Stephenson's head with his hand and tried to throw him down. Stephenson hugged Howard tightly. The two wrestled to the bottom line and finally fell into the audience together. The referee and staff quickly stepped forward to separate them, and both were eventually expelled.

Stephenson was selected by the Miami 305 team as the No. 1 pick in 2025, and there has been constant news since joining the BIG3 league. His teammate Beasley was dissatisfied with Stephenson's joining and even considered applying for a deal. Previously, the two also had a one-on-one match with a prize of $100,000, and Beasley won. In this conflict, Beasley calmly "eats melons" and had no intention of persuading the fight. The Miami 305 team's lineup includes former NBA players Mario Chalmers (captain), Michael Beasley (vice captain), Reggie Evans (vice captain), and head coach Michael Cooper and others. In the BIG3 League draft, Stephenson was the highly-watched No. 1 pick, and the selected players in the same class also included former NBA players Wesley Johnson and Amir Johnson.

This incident not only affected the normal progress of the competition, but also attracted widespread attention and discussion. As a game involving retired NBA players, the BIG3 League should have demonstrated the skills and style of veterans. This conflict has undoubtedly brought some negative impacts to the league. As soon as this happened, the BIG3 League was pushed to the forefront. Originally, this game was a retired NBA player playing an exhibition game, but now such a conflict has a bad impact on the league. I don’t know what the league will do to them in the future. Whether they can continue to fight after BIG3 has become a concern for everyone.
