Killian Hayes is slowed down in full rise in power. The French basketball player received a NBA three-game suspensionafter fighting with players from Orlando, Thursday, December 29.
Wagner suspended for two matches
The leader of the Pistons, pushed in full swing towards his bench by the German Moritz Wagner, had responded to his opponent by inflicting a nudge on the back of the head. He lost consciousness for a few moments. The Detroit player will therefore miss the next three trips to the Chicago Bulls first, to his compatriot Rudy Gobert and the Minnesota Timberwolves then, then to the Portland Trail Blazers to finish.
A sanction that comes at the wrong time for the Frenchman, 7th draft pick in 2020, who seemed to have found his rhythm with the absence of Cade Cunningham, whose season is already over due to injury. Hayes’ return is scheduled for Thursday, January 5 against the Golden State Warriors. If he received the longest suspension, the Frenchman is not the only one to have been sanctioned after the fight. Wagner was suspended for two games, as were several other players.
