Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ajay Mitchell and Washington Wizards forward Justin Champagnie each received one-game suspensions from the NBA for their roles in Saturday’s brawl between the two teams.
The league announced the penalties on Sunday. In addition to the suspensions, Oklahoma City’s Jaylin Williams and Cason Wallace were fined $35,000, while Washington’s Anthony Gill was docked the same amount.
The on-court altercation ignited with 27 seconds left in the second quarter when Champagnie and Williams shoved each other under the basket. Several players from each team subsequently joined the scuffle.
