Rondo Suspended One Game For Bumping Ref

You can say that the bump was accidental or intentional. The bottom line is that he made contact with an official and the League isn’t too happy about that.

Rajon Rondo of the Boston Celtics has been suspended one game without pay for making contact with a game official, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President Basketball Operations. The incident occurred with 0:41 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of the Celtics’ 83-74 loss to the Atlanta Hawks at Philips Arena on April 29. Rondo will serve his suspension tomorrow when the Celtics play the Hawks in Game 2 of their opening round series in Atlanta.
