Bilbao Basket v Laboral Kutxa Baskonia brawl

On March 1, 2015, the Basque basketball derby between Bilbao Basket and Laboral Kutxa Baskonia at Bilbao Arena finished with a brawl where Dejan Todorović of Bilbao and Tornike Shengelia of Baskonia were disqualified and twelve players were ejected due to court invasion during the fight.[41]

With four seconds left, despite the referee's call for a travelling, Todorović was going to dunk when he was hit by Shengelia. After this, the Montenegrin player pushed Shengelia from behind and the Georgian forward reacted with a punch. After this, all the players who were on the bench came into the court and started the brawl. When Shengelia was leaving the court after the disqualifying foul, he apologized to a child who was in the first row of the arena.[42]

The ACB announced this brawl would have severe consequences and sanctions and would talk with the Spanish Basketball Federation for changing the disciplinary regulations.[43] On March 5, the league provisionally suspended Todorović and Shengelia until the final resolution of the case.[44]

After knowing the notice, both clubs claimed to have the same sanctions than in 2004, when the brawl Real Madrid and Estudiantes occurred.[45] Finally, on March 11, the Disciplinary Judge accorded to suspend Tornike Shengelia for five games, Dejan Todorović for four and a €3,000 fine to Bilbao Basket player Dairis Bertāns and to Baskonia brothers Mamadou and Ilimane Diop.[46]
