The NBA handed out suspensions for Saturday's Fight Night at Staples Center.

Lakers point guard Rajon Rondo, Lakers forward Brandon Ingram and Rockets point guard Chris Paul all have been suspended, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Sunday, and the NBA later confirmed.

The NBA explained the suspensions this way:

"Ingram has been suspended for aggressively returning to and escalating the altercation and throwing a punch in the direction of Paul, confronting a game official in a hostile manner, and instigating the overall incident by shoving Rockets guard James Harden.

"Rondo has been suspended for instigating a physical altercation with, and spitting and throwing multiple punches at, Paul.

"Paul has been suspended for poking at and making contact with the face of Rondo, and throwing multiple punches at him."
