Celtics' guard Rajon Rondo was suspended two games for his role in the melee; he was the only player on either side to be suspended. The NBA was expected to fine several Celtics players, but so far, Kevin Garnett has been the only Boston player fined -- $25,000 for escalating.
Wallace has been in trouble with the NBA already this week, as he was warned for flopping after the Nets defeated the Knicks on Monday night. He was not fined for the flop, but after receiving a warning, he'll be fined $5,000 if he does it again.
The Nets will next be in action on Friday, Nov. 30 when they meet the Orlando Magic. The Celtics will next take the court the same night when they take on the Portland Trailblazers.
