Bulls center Robin Lopez and Raptors forward Serge Ibaka have each received a one-game suspension for "throwing punches at one another during an altercation," the NBA announced Wednesday in an official release. The incident occurred with 3:58 remaining in the third quarter of Toronto's overtime win over Chicago on Tuesday.

Additionally, Raptors assistant coach Jamaal Magloire was fined $15,000 for pushing Chicago's Nikola Mirotic and "acting as other than a peacemaker" during the altercation.

The Bulls will be without Lopez on Wednesday night when they host the Pistons, while Ibaka will miss Thursday's contest in Miami against the Heat.
