Eight hours prior to tip-off vs. the Denver Nuggets tonight, the league announced that Kings big man Domantas Sabonis has received a one-game suspension for following his ejection vs. the New York Knicks on Monday night. The ejection occurred with 4:35 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter of what was a terrible outing for the Kings.
Per the NBA, Sabonis’ quick-fire double techinal fouls that led to his eventual ejection were due to bumping the referee in a “hostile manner’”
The incident began with Sabonis receiving a technical foul for an unsportsmanlike reaction to a called foul.
