The sanctions decided for Nikola Jokic, Markieff Morris and Jimmy Butler

The NBA has announced the penalties for what happened in the game between the Miami Heat and the Denver Nuggets on Monday night. Nikola Jokic had the “worst” in this sense e will have to serve a game of suspension without salary. This will lead the Serbian center to lose $ 210,417.

Markieff Morris was only fined $ 50,000: the maximum amount before a player can appeal. Also Jimmy Butler, not directly involved in the physical confrontation, was sanctioned. The Heat star, who remotely threatened Jokic to “fix things off the pitch,” was fined $ 30,000 for “trying to make the situation degenerate”.

Jokic will miss the first game from the 2018-19 season.
