Spurs' DeRozan ejected for firing ball toward ref

San Antonio Spurs guard DeMar DeRozan was ejected during the fourth quarter of Saturday's 117-103 loss to the Denver Nuggets for firing the basketball in the direction of official Scott Foster.

DeRozan was called for an offensive foul after charging into Denver guard Gary Harris with 5:01 remaining. He then leaped in the air and spun and sent the ball flying to the left of Foster.

DeRozan headed to the exits with the Spurs trailing 110-92. He scored 19 points in 34 minutes.
