"A league source has confirmed that Rajon Rondo has been suspended one game for making contact with referee Marc Davis in the final minute of the Celtics' Game 1 playoff loss to the Hawks.

The NBA spoke with Rondo, coach Doc Rivers and others involved this morning before rendering its decision. According to a different source, the Celtics may be fortunate that the penalty will cost Rondo just the one game — tomorrow night's Game 2 here. There was said to be serious consideration given to a longer penalty in that Rondo was aggressively moving toward the official to argue what he believed were two missed calls."
