With 3:12 remaining in the first half and the Suns down 50-47, Plumlee and Adams got tangled up as Phoenix was inbounding off a Jalen Green make and went to the ground.
Coaches and players had to separate the pair before referees handed out double technical fouls leading to the ejections.
According to Suns sideline reporter Amanda Pflugrad, Plumlee headed to the locker room bleeding from his head.
The center’s night comes to an end after recording four points and six rebounds in 13 minutes.
Adams contributed one point, four rebounds and one assist in 11 minutes of work.
With Plumlee sidelined, Oso Ighodaro and Bol Bol could be leaned on more in the second half.
Bol had seven points, one rebound and a assist on the night, while Ighodaro added three blocks in the first half.
