A Sneak Peek At the Clippers’ Redesigned Court

Naji Marshall has received a four-game suspension, while Jusuf Nurkic will get a three-game suspension for their involvement in an on-court altercation. PJ Washington has received a one-game suspension.

The incident, which occurred with 9:02 remaining in the third quarter of the Mavericks’ 98-89 win over the Suns at Footprint Center on December 27, began after Nurkić committed an offensive foul. Marshall and Nurkić then engaged in an on-court altercation. Nurkic escalated it by swinging his arm and striking Marshall on top of his head. Marshall responded by throwing a punch that connected with Nurkic’s face. As the officials and other players attempted to diffuse the situation, Washington further escalated the altercation by shoving Nurkić to the floor. For their roles, Marshall, Nurkic and Washington were assessed technical fouls and ejected from the game.

Following the on-court incident, Marshall attempted to further engage Nurkic in a hostile manner in the corridor outside the locker rooms.
