Kings' Dennis Schröder Suspended 3 Games for Attempting to Strike Luka Dončić

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schröder received a three-game suspension for attempting to strike Lakers star Luka Dončić in a Crypto.com Arena hallway following their Dec. 28 game. Dončić reportedly trash-talked Schröder during the game about a past fumbled contract offer. Schröder, who commented "Attempting 👀 🤣" on Instagram, will miss games against the Rockets, Lakers, and Knicks, becoming eligible to return Jan. 16 vs. the Wizards. He is averaging 13 points, 5.7 assists, and 2.7 rebounds this season, scoring double figures in his last 11 contests.
