Celtics second-year forward Glen Davis got ejected with 9:09 remaing in the third quarter of tonight's victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers in Boston. He caught Cleveland forward Anderson Varejao around the neck as he drove to the basket.

LeBron James and Zydrunas Ilgauskas each got tabbed for technical fouls for running at Davis following the fouls, and Celtics guard Ray Allen also got called for a technical in the incident.

Davis, who scored 10 points on 5 of 8 shooting in 17 minutes, described the play on his way out following the game, saying, "It was kind of an awkward situation because I got there late."

He also said he was sort of laughing when he found out he'd been ejected because it had never happened to him before. In fact, he was surprised when he the officials were explaining the call to head coach Doc Rivers.

Davis recalled, "I just heard flagrant two and I was like, 'Oh, that means I got to go.'"
