Serge Ibaka’s latest on-court loss of composure will cost the Raptors forward a three-game suspension.
The NBA announced Tuesday afternoon that Ibaka will sit out three games after trading punches with Cleveland’s Marquese Chriss at the end of the third quarter of Monday night’s game against the Cavaliers.

Chriss was suspended for one game for his part in the fracas.
The play, with one second left in the third quarter of Toronto’s 126-101 loss, involved Chriss pulling Ibaka to the court after a long pass went awry and standing over him, seemingly having something to say to the Raptors veteran.
