Robin Lopez is well aware that he could face considerable punishment for Tuesday's scuffle at the Air Canada Centre.
"I'm expecting to be suspended," Lopez told The Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson.
Things got heated in the third quarter of the Bulls contest with the Toronto Raptors, as Lopez and Serge Ibaka were both ejected after throwing punches at one another.
"I think it was just a really physical game for everybody. And it hit the flashpoint," Lopez added.
Jimmy Butler, too, thinks Lopez will miss some games once the NBA reviews the incident.
"Obviously, he's going to be suspended," Butler told Johnson. "We know that."
Toronto ultimately won the contest, snapping an 11-game losing skid against Chicago.
