With just 6 seconds left in the game, Ben Simmons and Kyle Lowry got into a little altercation at center court, leading to the ejection of both players. As Simmons was leaving the court, he seemed to suggest that he and Lowry meet backstage and has it out. Lowry seemed real into it:

Looked like Simmons suggested he and Lowry should continue their 'conversation' in the tunnel after both were ejected. Lowry (paraphrasing) said let's go and sprinted to the back.

Since this is the NBA and not a rec center, it seems unlikely this actually followed with anything, though maybe it did:

UPDATE: Probably not:
Simmons denies anything happened with Lowry. Said, “it’s nothing “.

There actually wasn't anything that happened between Kyle Lowry and Ben Simmons in the hallway, by the way. Because of the locker arrangements (and a leak) it apparently wouldn't have even been possible.
