Pacers’ Jackson suspended, again

02.3.2005

New York, NY (Basketball News) - Indiana Pacers guard Stephen Jackson was suspended for one game without pay on Thursday for verbally abusing a game official.

Jackson verbally went after the officials after the Pacers’ 98-97 home loss to Toronto on Wednesday. Jackson was called for a foul on Jalen Rose, leading to the game-winning free throws with just 0.4 seconds remaining.

Jackson was suspended for 30 games earlier this season for his part in the infamous brawl in Detroit. He will miss Indiana’s game Friday night against Dallas at Conseco Fieldhouse for this most recent infraction.
