The Kings disagree with the NBA ruling.
We disagree with the NBA's decision to suspend Domantas. The team said in a statement that he is a professional and a competitor.
Bobby Marks said that the suspension would cost $127,586.
In the 131-115 loss, the Kings had 19 points and 13 rebound from Sabonis.
