    Rajon Rondo has been suspended for two games for his involvement in Wednesday's fight with the Nets, Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge said on WEEI sports radio in Boston.

    Brooklyn general manager Billy King said Nets players were not suspended, but small forward Gerald Wallace was fined $35,000 for his actions.

    After Nets forward Kris Humphries delivered a foul that sent Kevin Garnett crashing hard onto his back in the second quarter, Rondo immediately confronted Humphries, delivering a two-handed shove.

    The two then got tangled, with Rondo the aggressor, and the shoving spilled into the stands beneath the basket in front of the Celtics' bench. Players and coaches from both teams rushed onto the court, with security and team personnel trying to defuse the situation.

    Rondo was one of three players ejected from the game.

    Rondo talked with the league an hour before the Celtics' Thursday afternoon practice.

    "I told them the truth," Rondo said before the suspension came down. "I don't know what's going to happen. They haven't made a decision yet, so I'm just waiting to hear back from the league. I went through practice today hoping I'll play tomorrow, but you never know."
