NC State reserve ejected for leaving bench vs. Virginia

NC State reserve Scottie Ebube was ejected from Tuesday's game against Virginia after leaving the bench during a midcourt altercation.

The incident occurred during a media timeout with the Wolfpack trailing 41-28. Virginia's Sam Lewis and NC State's Darrion Williams came together, leading to offsetting technical fouls. Officials reviewed the incident and ejected Ebube for leaving the bench. Ebube, a 6-foot-10 transfer from Wyoming, had not played in the game prior to the ejection.
