We thought the NBA would be lenient, but it decided to punish LeBron James for his nudge in the face, and Isaiah Stewart for his big pounding. The four-time MVP is being suspended for his ejection, and he will not play Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden against the Knicks, and it will cost him $ 284,000 in salary.
We imagine that some New York fans will be above this decision since they will miss the annual visit of the best player of his generation …
For his part, Stewart is suspended for two meetings for having made matters worse ” by repeatedly and aggressively pursuing LeBron James in an unsportsmanlike manner“. For him, it will be 45,000 dollars in less salary.
