NEW YORK — The Denver Nuggets will get a short-handed Minnesota squad on Tuesday night after two Timberwolves were suspended for an on-court altercation earlier this week.
Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart was suspended for two games and four other players from the Pistons and Minnesota Timberwolves drew one-game suspensions for their roles in an on-court altercation between the teams earlier this week, the NBA said Tuesday.
Stewart got two games “based in part on his repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts,” the league said.
The NBA handed the one-game bans to Detroit’s Ron Holland II and Marcus Sasser along with Minnesota’s Naz Reid and Donte DiVincenzo.
