Garnett suspended, Bogut fined for Saturday incident

+

BDL's J.E. Skeets has video and reaction to the Saturday dust-up between Andrew Bogut and Kevin Garnett, which has now earned KG a one game suspension. Bogut's technical foul was also upgraded to a flagrant one, which isn't unreasonable. I do think there was some intent on Bogut's part to flail a bit more than usual, but it would have also been harsh to suspend him for something so marginal.

Bogut injures ankle in loss to Team USA

We'll have more later on Team USA's 116-85 win over the upstart Australians, but for now Bucks fans' main concern is with the ankle of Andrew Bogut. Having already injured his ankle earlier in pre-Olympic warmups, Bogut left in the third quarter against Team USA after stepping on Kobe Bryant's foot. Garry D'Amato reports that Bogut's due for an MRI, at which point we'll know more. Australian team doctor Seamus Dalton said,"We'll get a scan as a precaution. He rolled the ankle. It could be a tear, a sprain . . . we don't know. It's not too swollen at the moment."
