It was the strong image of last night, Killian Hayes and Mo Wagner colliding during the game between Orlando and Detroit. Inevitably, the NBA did not appreciate these images and released the sanctions.
We’re not going to lie. This one, we weren’t expecting it! At the heart of the confusion, Killian Hayes and Mo Wagner are obviously the main concerned by this disciplinary council made in Adam Silver. The tricolor leader receives three games for his bloodshed. A rather heavy sanction for someone who is not accustomed to the fact. His new best friend (no) takes him two games for his contribution. Until then, everything is more or less normal and then the League brought back some memories to us by sanctioning the players who had left their bench to come and take part in the celebration. For the Pistons, not too much damage (Hamidou Diallo took a match anyway) since the incident took place… in their area. On the other hand, the Magic took a lot of money in the operation… Including Mo Wagner, nine players are suspended!!

Cole Anthony, RJ Hampton, Gary Harris, Kevon Harris, Admiral Schofield, Franz Wagner, Mo Bamba and Wendell Carter Jr. have therefore been caught by the patrol and they will all have to serve one game suspension without pay. Nine fewer players to play a game is still complicated and the League has therefore decided to divide the suspensions into two groups so that Jamahl Mosley can line up eight players for the next two games. Five players will therefore serve their suspension this Friday once morest the Wizards while the other three will wait for the meeting once morest OKC to remain in civilian clothes. Mickey fans can at least console themselves by saying that Paolo Banchero is not in the lot. Given the absences to come, the Italian-American may have a job.
The NBA hit hard following the incidents between the Pistons and the Magic. Eleven players suspended including three games for Killian Hayes. The message is clear: fighting is not on the pitch.
