Providence's Duncan Powell was suspended three games for "combative actions" on Sunday after he was one of six players ejected from Saturday's 79-69 loss to No. 17 St. John's.
Powell, whose hard foul on St. John's guard Bryce Hopkins ignited the fracas, was suspended two games by the Big East Conference on top of an automatic one-game suspension mandated by NCAA rules for fighting.
"After the on-court video review, game officials determined that Powell engaged in additional combative actions that constituted a fighting act subsequent to the flagrant foul," the statement from the Big East said Sunday.
