A day later, the NBA ruled on the start of the fight which occurred on Wednesday, during the duel between Pistons and Magic.
As expected, it is Killian Hayesauthor of a blow from behind, who received the most games of suspension (three), followed by Moritz Wagner (two), author of a stroller on the French, and by nine other players (one each), guilty of having aggravated the situation and/or of having risen from their bench.
In total, the NBA has therefore distributed no less than 14 suspension games, following this scuffle!
As a reminder, everything went into a spin when Killian Hayes and Moritz Wagner were fighting for the ball near the touchline and the German jostled then sent the Frenchman into the background. In the process, Moritz Wagner quickly found himself surrounded by several Detroit players, after a first push in the back of Hamidou Diallo.
It was then that Killian Hayes, yet restrained by an assistant, got up to strike a blow in the back to Moritz Wagner, hitting him in the neck. The grouping then became increasingly important, while the speaker of the room implored the spectators to stay in their places, before things finally return to order, without there being any more mayhem.
On arrival, Killian Hayes, Moritz Wagner and Hamidou Diallo were all three sent off by the referees. Then suspended by the league, therefore, along with Cole Anthony, Mo Bamba, Wendell Carter Jr, RJ Hampton, Gary Harris, Kevon Harris, Franz Wagner and finally Admiral Schofield.
