Montrezl Harrell to be suspended multiple games after he shoved referee in NBA D-League
Harrell will be suspended
Montrezl Harrell shoved an official to the ground who was trying to keep the peace between him and Derek Cooke jr.
Per FoxSports, The NBRA released a statement concerning the floor altercation culminating in Rio Grande Valley player Montrezl Harrell forcefully shoving Referee Jason Goldenberg to the ground during a game with Bakersfield on March 26, 2016. “After carefully reviewing videotape and related evidence concerning this incident, we have reached the inescapable conclusion that Harrell committed a deliberate assault and battery against Referee Goldenberg. Anything less than a multiple game suspension would constitute a green light for violence against officials,” said Lee Seham, NBRA general counsel.
