Mo Bamba Suspended One Game For Violating Team Rule

Dec 11, 2018 2:35 AM

Mo Bamba was suspended for the Orlando Magic's 101-76 loss against the Dallas Mavericks for violating a team rule.

Steve Clifford didn't appear too concerned, calling it a "one-game thing".

"It's just bad on my part, and I need to be better. I've got to be on time," Bamba said. "It's very difficult. You want to be out there, and you want to impact the game in any way possible. But you get to sit back and watch and see what you can do better at the same time."

Bamba is averaging 6.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per game in his rookie season.
