Sacramento Kings<\/a> guard Dennis Schroder<\/a> has been suspended for three games after an incident in which the NBA<\/a> says Schr\u00f6der confronted and attempted to strike an opposing player following the Kings’ 125-108 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> on Dec. 28.<\/p>\n

“The NBA today announced that Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schr\u00f6der has been suspended three games without pay for confronting and attempting to strike another player,” an NBA statement read<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The incident occurred approximately 40 minutes following the Kings’ 125-101 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Dec. 28 at Crypto.com Arena, when Schr\u00f6der sought out the player in an arena hallway and initiated the confrontation. <\/p>\n

“Schr\u00f6der will begin serving his suspension tomorrow when the Kings host the Houston Rockets<\/a> at Golden 1 Center.”<\/p>\n

Videos from the game appeared to show Lakers star Luka Doncic<\/a> taunting Schr\u00f6der during the game, with Don\u010di\u0107 seemingly telling Schr\u00f6der, “You should have signed that contract, bro.” This was a reference to Schr\u00f6der allegedly turning down a 4-year, $84 million extension with the Lakers in 2021. Schr\u00f6der ended up signing a one-year, $5.9 million taxpayer mid-level exception contract with the Boston Celtics<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n

Video appeared to show Schr\u00f6der telling Don\u010di\u0107, “I’m gonna beat the s— out of you.”<\/p>\n

According to senior NBA Insider for NBA on Prime, Chris Haynes<\/a>, Don\u010di\u0107 was the player Schr\u00f6der confronted after the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Don\u010di\u0107 ended the game with 34 points, five rebounds and seven assists to Schr\u00f6der’s 11 points, two rebounds and seven assists.<\/p>\n

Schr\u00f6der will miss games with the Houston Rockets, New York Knicks<\/a>, and, in no surprise, the Lakers. The Kings are currently 8-30 and in last place in the Western Conference, well behind the fifth-place Lakers, who sit at 23-13.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Getty Images Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder has been suspended for three games after an incident in which…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":528630,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3790],"tags":[7,1024,73082,73081,73083,73073,4034,1698,300,4044,251,150,4033,4043,368,6,477],"class_list":{"0":"post-528629","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-lakers","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-dennis-schroder","10":"tag-dennis-schroder-kings","11":"tag-dennis-schroder-luka-doncic","12":"tag-dennis-schroder-luka-doncic-beef","13":"tag-dennis-schroder-suspension","14":"tag-la","15":"tag-la-lakers","16":"tag-lakers","17":"tag-lalakers","18":"tag-los-angeles","19":"tag-los-angeles-lakers","20":"tag-losangeles","21":"tag-losangeleslakers","22":"tag-luka-doncic","23":"tag-nba","24":"tag-sacramento-kings"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115874609536943809","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/528629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=528629"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/528629\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/528630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=528629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=528629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=528629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
