Rockets' Trevor Ariza accepts responsibility for ban: 'It is what is is'

HOUSTON -- Houston Rockets forward Trevor Ariza accepted responsibility for his actions that led to a two-game suspension but declined to discuss whether he hashed out his issues with LA Clippers guard Austin Rivers.

Ariza and teammate Gerald Green were suspended two games after a league investigation determined that they "entered the Clippers' locker room immediately after the game and engaged in a hostile, verbal altercation with several Clippers players."

Sources said Rivers was the primary player that Ariza, who was ejected late in Houston's heated loss, wanted to confront.
