As the Gamecocks were on the way to their timeout huddle, Gamecocks forward Ashlynn Watkins got in the face of LSU point guard Flau’jae Johnson, and Johnson shoved her away. After seeing the shove, South Carolina center Kamilla Cardoso shoved Johnson even harder causing her to hit the ground with force.

It is against the rules for players to leave the bench amid the altercation so LSU and South Carolina finished the last 2:08 of the game with just five players each. Cardoso was also ejected from the contest.
