He will no longer be fined for the second tech, and the ejection he received was also taken away.
Mazzulla’s ejection came with just under five minutes to play in the third quarter. Bulls center Nikola Vucevic thrashed the ball through the air in disagreement with a call but did not receive a tech. Jayson Tatum argued that Vucevic’s motion was similar to the one he had gotten called for a few minutes earlier.
