Los Angeles Lakers guard Nick Young has been suspended one game without pay for throwing a punch at Phoenix Suns guard Goran Dragic with 7:33 remaining in the second quarter of the Lakers’ 121-114 loss to the Suns on Wednesday night, the league announced Thursday.
Suns center Alex Len, who was ejected for his flagrant-2 foul against Young, was fined $15,000. Suns forward Marcus Morris was fined $25,000 for escalating the altercation.
Young will serve his suspension on Friday night when the Lakers visit the Boston Celtics at TD Garden.
