The incident began when Ron Holland II committed a defensive foul on Naz Reid with 8:36 remaining in the second quarter of the Timberwolves’ 123-104 victory over the Pistons on March 30 at Target Center. Following that foul, Reid pointed at and confronted Holland. Holland then pushed Donte DiVincenzo and in response, DiVincenzo escalated the incident by shoving Holland II in the chest. The two players along with Reid became entangled and fell into the spectator stands.

• Isaiah Stewart: 2 game suspension
• Donte DiVincenzo: 1 game suspension
• Ron Holland: 1 game suspension
• Naz Reid: 1 game suspension
• Marcus Sasser: 1 game suspension
