Facundo Campazzo has been suspended one game without pay for forcefully shoving Los Angeles Lakers guard Wayne Ellington to the floor from behind, and Ellington has been fined $20,000 for escalating the incident with a threatening comment on social media postgame.

The incident, for which Campazzo was assessed a Flagrant Foul 2 and ejected, occurred with 7:24 remaining in the second quarter of the Nuggets’ 146-141 overtime loss to the Lakers on April 10 at Ball Arena.  

Campazzo will serve his suspension Saturday when the Nuggets face the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center in Game One of their first round series in the 2022 NBA Playoffs.

The NBA has rescinded Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic's 16th technical foul from Friday night's game. That means Doncic will not face a one-game suspension. He will now be eligible for Sunday's regular season finale.

Dallas still has a shot at passing the Golden State Warriors for the 3-seed. Doncic being available for that game gives the Mavs a better chance of moving up from the 4-seed to the 3-seed. Dallas can drop no lower than fourth in the Western Conference.

After receiving their 16th technical foul, players are suspended for a game. They are then suspended one game for every other technical foul for the remainder of the regular season. The technical foul count resets when the playoffs begin.
