Marbury Docked Six Figures

Knicks Guard Suspended, Too

Stephan Marbury was suspended one game and had nearly $400,000 worth of pay docked because he allegedly refused to play in a game. The New York Knicks were playing with a short roster. The Knicks organization claims coach Mike D'Antoni asked Marbury to play and Marbury refused. Marbury's contract pays him about $21 million this season minus the money docked.

What a great way to spend about $21 million. Marbury has proven to be a great investment of time and resources for the New York Knicks. He is such a great investment that he will probably never play in the NBA again after this season.
