Also, the Pacers’ Earl Watson was fined $30,000 for instigating and adding to the escalation of an on-court incident. Indiana’s Roy Hibbert and the Suns’ Jason Richardson were each fined $25,000 for adding to the escalation of an on-court incident.
Granger sat out Tuesday against Philadelphia. Frye will miss the Suns’ game against the Lakers on Friday.
