Palace raced to a 2-0 advantage at Selhurst Park on Wednesday, only for Burnley to score three goals in seven first-half minutes for a 3-2 comeback win that ended their 16-game Premier League winless streak.

The league handed Brooks a one-game ban without pay after the call came with 6:37 left in the second quarter of Phoenix's 136-109 defeat to Oklahoma City on Wednesday. He'll miss the Suns' Feb. 19 road game against the San Antonio Spurs, costing him about $121,403 from his $21.1 million salary. Brooks leads the NBA with 16 techs this season—tops ahead of Luka Doncic's 13—and vented postgame about inconsistent officiating from ref James Williams, saying refs see him as either victim or bad guy. For a .500 Suns team chasing playoffs, his edge on defense matters, but the tech pace raises discipline questions as he returns Feb. 21 versus the Magic.

Key Takeaway

Dillon Brooks hit his 16th technical foul in a blowout loss to the Thunder, triggering an automatic NBA suspension just before the All-Star break.
