Kevin Garnett Suspended For Head-Butting Dwight Howard

 The NBA announced the suspension Tuesday, adding that Howard has been fined $15,000 for pushing Garnett during the altercation, which took place in the first quarter of Monday's game in Brooklyn.




Nets head coach Lionel Hollins, however, said he thought Howard took a swing at Garnett's throat. Garnett, who was ejected from the game, will serve the suspension during Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
