Well this player was in town with an Illinois team for the Nike AAU tournament. In 1st half of an exciting game against a Houston team Jerome Richmond dunked on a big man and then got T'd up for taunting. In the aftermath their fans and coaches were yelling "that's ok, we'll take a 'T' for that".

Well, what do you know!?! In the 2nd half there was a scrum type play under his basket with a lot of banging bodies that resulted in Richmond's teammate scoring an "And-1". Well, as the refs were stepping in Richmond got in the face of the same Houston player from earlier and ended up getting another Technical.

His coaches and fans were aghast. They were screaming and yelling that the refs can't eject the "number 1 player in the country".

By the way, did his team go on to lose without him?

I was wondering myself if he was suspended for the next game. I did notice that they lost by about 15 points in their next game, which was a single elimination bracket game, so I think maybe he did have to sit out.
