During the Warriors loss to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, Stevens - who was seated courtside - reached over a few seats to shove Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry, who had fallen into the stands.
Golden State quickly condemned Stevens’ actions, and announced that he would not be present at any more games during the NBA Finals.
But the punishment quickly got more severe, as the Warriors and the NBA collectively fined Stevens $500,000, and banned him from attending NBA games until the end of the 2019-20 season.
