Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder has been handed a three-game suspension without pay for confronting and attempting to strike Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic in an arena hallway after their December 28 game. The incident followed the Lakers' 125-101 victory at Crypto.com Arena, stemming from on-court verbal exchanges. Schroder will miss upcoming games against the Houston Rockets, New York Knicks, and Lakers.
The NFL has suspended Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase for one game due to unsportsmanlike conduct after he spit on Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey during their Week 11 matchup. Chase, who is appealing the decision, will miss the Bengals' next game against the New England Patriots if upheld. Ramsey was ejected from the Steelers' 34-12 victory after punching Chase in retaliation.
