Leonard has been suspended one game for his altercation Saturday with the Sixers' Daniel Orton, The Columbian reports.

Analysis:

Leonard took Orton to the ground as he fell in the fourth quarter, and in the process, Orton elbowed him, drawing immediate ejections on both sides. It's unclear if Leonard will serve the suspension Sunday in Detroit, especially since he'll likely opt to appeal the ban, but he doesn't factor into the rotation anyway, meaning few owners are affected by the development.
