Memphis Grizzlies forward/LeBron James antagonist Dillon Brooks was ejected from Saturday night’s Game 3 loss in LA for hitting James below the belt.
Fortunately for Brooks, it looks like getting tossed is the biggest punishment he’ll receive.
According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the NBA reviewed the Flagrant 2 foul and determined there will be “no additional penalty.”

This means Brooks will be available for Game 4 on Monday night. The Lakers took a 2-1 lead over Memphis with their 111-101 win on Saturday.
James, who spoke with Brooks on the court during pregame warmups, was not phased by trash talk or cheap shots, scoring 25 points and contributing nine rebounds and five assists.
Lakers big man Anthony Davis led the way with 31 points, 17 rebounds and three blocked shots, while Grizzlies star Ja Morant turned in a spectacular 45-point, 13-assist, nine-rebound effort in a losing cause.
Brooks, meanwhile, scored seven points on 3-of-13 shooting in 19 minutes before getting ejected.
