Referee suspended for throwing ball at fan

Veteran National Basketball Association ref Joe DeRosa has been slapped with a one-game suspension for throwing a game ball at a fan during half-time of Tuesday's play-off match in Orlando.

NBA's disciplinary officials said DeRosa will miss his next scheduled assignment. DeRosa was near the scorer's table when he was approached by a fan at half-time of game two of the series between the Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic. The fan appeared to be shouting at DeRosa, who flipped the ball to him. The fan then tossed it back.
