Memphis Grizzlies guard Marko Guduric and forward Jaren Jackson Jr. were also suspended one game without pay for leaving the bench area during the altercation. Unhappy with the move, Payton shoved Crowder out of bounds while he was in mid-air and a brawl ensued. “We understand the NBA’s decision to fine and suspend Elfrid Payton, as well as fine Marcus Morris Sr. for their behavior during last night’s game,” the Knicks said in a statement. Payton will serve his suspension Saturday when the Knicks visit the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
