The Oklahoma City Thunder were sleepwalking their way to yet another routine win over the lowly and injury-riddled Washington Wizards on a light night. It was looking like a mundane day at the office for the reigning champions until the clash received an injection of adrenaline late in the first half, as a fight broke out between OKC’s Ajay Mitchell and Washington’s Justin Champagnie, with an ugly consequence for both.

A little nothing of pushing and posturing quickly escalated into a fight that spilled into the first row.

Washington forward Justin Champagnie and Oklahoma City guard Ajay Mitchell each received a one-game suspension for fighting and escalating an on-court altercation that spilled into the seating area during a game, the league announced Sunday. Thunder forward Jaylin Williams was fined $50,000, while Oklahoma City guard Cason Wallace and Wizards forward Anthony Gill each received $35,000 fines for their roles in the altercation that took place late in the first half of the Thunder’s 132-111 victory on Saturday night. Following a basket by Gill, Williams and Champagnie began shoving each other under the basket.
