Atlanta Hawks forward Lorenzen Wright and Memphis
Grizzlies forward Kimani Ffriend were each suspended Friday for a
game after both players threw a punch during a shoving match earlier
this week.
Wright and Ffriend were both ejected from Wednesday night's
pre-season game in the third quarter after they got into a fight
under the Grizzlies' basket.
Each player will serve his suspension during the first
regular-season game he is available to play. Ffriend, who was waived
on Friday by Memphis, will serve the suspension if he returns to the
NBA on an active regular-season roster.
