Drew Gooden posts first double-double despite ejection

Wizards forward Drew Gooden recorded his first double-double of the season before he was ejected in the late stages of Friday's win over the Lakers.

Gooden got into a scuffle with Nick Young and Jordan Hill, receiving a flagrant foul type 2 and an automatic ejection with 2:14 remaining in the fourth quarter. He managed to grab 11 boards and score 11 points on 5 of 8 shooting, and 1 of 1 from the free throw line while logging 19 minutes off the bench before getting tossed.

Gooden is averaging 13.6 points and 7.6 rebounds over his last five appearances.
