Suspended without pay too. And Matty’s throwin’ shade at the NBA now, calling their decision a joke! According to TMZ : Matt Barnes has been suspended by the NBA for one game… after the L.A. Clippers forward pled “no contest” to interfering with the duties of a police officer. According to the NBA, Barnes will serve out his suspension tomorrow — when the Clippers play their season opener against the Memphis Grizzlies. The punishment stems from an incident back in July — when Barnes was arrested for driving on a suspended license and resisting arrest. As we first reported, Barnes eventually pled no contest to misdemeanor interference with the duties of a police officer … and his suspended license charge was dropped when he proved he had a valid license. He’ll be back on Friday when the Clippers face the Lakers. Do you think Barnes should have been suspended?? Images via
