PHOENIX — It appears the NBA powers have spoken after the altercation between Suns owner Mat Ishbia and Nuggets center Nikola Jokic.
A report from NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski Monday afternoon said the Nuggets star will be fined $25,000 but will not receive any suspension.
During Game 4 on Sunday, Jokic was seen pushing Ishbia after Jokic went into the front row of fans to retrieve the basketball after it went out of bounds. Many took to social media after the incident to speculate if the action required suspension.
Ishbia also took to Twitter Monday morning to say he believed the center shouldn't receive a suspension.
Looks like both teams will be at full strength when Game 5 tips off in Colorado Tuesday night.
