The Golden State Warriors' Stephen Jackson has been suspended one game without pay by the NBA for receiving his 16th technical foul this season.
NBA executive vice president of operations Stu Jackson announced
the discipline on Monday.
Jackson received his 16th technical with 3:54 remaining in the
third period of Golden State's 154-130 home loss to the Phoenix
Suns on Sunday. He will miss the Warriors' game at home against the
Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday.
A player or coach receives an automatic one-game suspension
after receiving his 16th technical foul. Every other technical foul
beyond 16 (18, 20, 22, etc.) also results in a one-game suspension
without pay.
