Bucks center Larry Sanders suspended for 1 game

NEW YORK (AP) Milwaukee center Larry Sanders was suspended for one game without pay by the NBA on Thursday for pushing Portland forward Nicolas Batum in the back as he elevated toward the basket.

The fourth-quarter incident in the Bucks' 104-97 loss at Portland on Wednesday night was upgraded to a Flagrant Foul 2. Sanders sat out the Bucks' game Thursday night in Sacramento.
