Payton Suspended One Game
From the AP: "Miami Heat guard Gary Payton was suspended one game without pay Monday for talking back to an official who ejected him during a win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday.
Payton will serve the suspension Monday night when Miami hosts the Charlotte Bobcats.
The incident occurred late in the second quarter on Saturday, when Payton, starting in place of the injured Jason Williams, was ejected by official Mark Davis for arguing a call. Before leaving the floor, Payton leaned in close and said something to Davis. The Heat won the game 117-98.
The 16-year veteran is averaging 5.6 points and 2.9 assists this season, both career lows."
