NEW YORK (AP) — Chicago Bulls guard Richard Hamilton was suspended one game without pay by the NBA on Saturday for hitting Toronto’s DeMar DeRozan the previous night.
With about 512 minutes remaining in the third quarter of the Raptors’ 97-88 win on Friday, Hamilton hit DeRozan in the face with his elbow. Hamilton was whistled for a Flagrant 2 and ejected.
He will miss the Bulls’ game at Miami on Sunday.
