    According to this Chron story:

    "Rockets rookie center Chinanu Onuaku was suspended for the first two games of the Rockets Western Conference semifinals against the San Antonio Spurs for pushing an official in an NBA Development League game last week.

    Onuaku pushed an official in the final seconds of the Rio Grande Valley Vipers' 122-96 loss to Raptors 905 in Game 3 of the 2017 NBA D-League Finals on Thursday."

    Great, just great. Now who's gonna keep Dewayne Dedmon from going off for 50?

    Damn, we won't get to see him take free throws when we're up 30 in the 4th.

    If Montrez did it, it worked out for him.

    We need hungry and angry players. We only have 1 currently and his name is The Wolverine.

    Trez and Chinananuauano need to start eating.

    IT'S BUCKET SEASON.

    It's okay. We're unleashing Isaiah Taylor against the Spurs. Wiltjer against the Warriors. And our final weapon Onuaku against the Cavs.

    Don't you have to be on the Active list of 12 players for games to count towards suspension. Otherwise, if you were going to be one of the 3 Inactive List spots anyhow, it's not much of a penalty. I always get confused about it.

    The ref was choppin' on his underhand free throws. Chinanu was having none of it.

    **** dude we really needed Onuaku tonight. He would have been the secret weapon to push the lead to 100!
