Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
NEW YORK, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Golden State Warriors forward Chris Mills was suspended three games by the NBA Sunday for his role in a brawl following Friday night's loss to Portland and for trying to confront Trail Blazers swingman Bonzi Wells.
In handing down the suspension, NBA senior vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson cited Mills for confronting Wells in the locker room and on the team bus.
Wells was suspended two games Saturday and teammate Rasheed Wallace was fined $15,000 for trying to go into the stands following the on-court altercations.
Wallace won the game with a 17-footer at the buzzer, but chaos ensued almost immediately as Mills shoved Wells under the basket. As teammates and coaches tried to pull the two apart, Wells hit Mills with a punch.
The teams squared off and Wallace had to be restrained by teammate Zach Randolph and Coach Maurice Cheeks from going after a member of the Warriors. As the Blazers left the court, fans showered them with insults and debris, setting off Wallace.
