During the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets game, some fans of the two teams got into a fight. A fight broke out and punches were thrown as the rivalry between the two sides has now grown into something new.

Friday night was expected to be a schedule loss for the Los Angeles Lakers as they took on the Denver Nuggets to close out their road trip in the second night of a back-to-back in the midst of the roughest part of their schedule.

These games happen in the NBA. There was no LeBron James or Luka Doncic for the Lakers, but with the chance to shine, other guys stepped up — Austin Reaves scored 37, Dalton Knecht had 32 with five 3-pointers, and Los Angeles just played hard. Meanwhile, Denver played like they expected the Lakers to roll over.

The Nuggets needed to score five points in the final 10 seconds to beat a Lakers team that was without LeBron James, Luka Doncic and others, 131-126, on Friday at Ball Arena.
