NEW YORK – Seattle forward Danny Fortson was suspended for two games by the NBA today for yelling at a referee, throwing a chair and not leaving the court promptly following his ejection during a victory over Sacramento.
He was to miss tonight's game at Phoenix and Sunday's game against Dallas.
Fortson was ejected with 7:09 left in Thursday night's game. He skirmished with Chris Webber after fouling him hard, and both players were assessed technicals. It was Fortson's third ejection this season.
