Dahntay Jones doesn't see much playing time with the Cavaliers, so when he entered Monday's playoff game against the Raptors he wanted to make the most of it. Unfortunately for the 36-year-old veteran, it's going to cost him. 

Jones entered in the waning seconds of the Cavaliers' rout of the Raptors and managed to record one dunk, two technical fouls and one ejection in about one minute.

After dunking on a fastbreak, Jones stared down the Raptors' Jakob Poeltl and talked a bit a bit of trash, earning him a first technical foul. Poeltl responded but Jones kept it up, earning a second technical and an automatic ejection with just 18 seconds left in the game. 

The ejection is sure going to cost him.
