John Wall will likely be suspended for punch
John Wall - G - Washington Wizards
March 31, 2011 - 10:15 AM ET

A suspension for John Wall is "likely," according to Wizards beat writer Michael Lee.

After taking two elbows to the head from Zydrunas Ilgauskas last night, Wall clearly threw a punch at the veteran's midsection. Although coach Flip Saunders said he hoped there would be no further punishment, the NBA almost certainly has to act. We'd be surprised if Wall was available for Friday's game against the Cavs, giving Maurice Evans, Jordan Crawford and Othyus Jeffers boosts.
