Nikola Jokic Suspended For 1 Game

 The NBA has issued a suspension to the reigning MVP Nikola Jokic. Jokic flagrantly pushed Markieff Morris in retaliation. 

The league also fined Markieff Morris $50,000 for his flagrant foul that led to Jokic's retaliation. All-Star Jimmy Butler was fined $30,000 for failing to comply with an NBA security interview.

The Denver Nuggets and the Miami Heat will face off again on November 29, 2021. Fans are circling their calendars to watch that game on NBA TV.
