Livingston, referee suspended: The National Basketball Association suspended Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston for one game and removed official Courtney Kirkland from the officiating rotation for a week because of an altercation during a game Sunday.

Livingston and Kirkland bumped heads during the second quarter of the Warriors’ victory at Miami. Livingston was assessed a technical foul and ejected for making contact with a game official.

NBA executive vice president Kiki VanDeWeghe said a league review determined that Kirkland moved toward Livingston and shared responsibility for the contact.

Washington pleads guilty: Former NBA player Kermit Washington pleaded guilty to charges accusing him of spending $155,000 in donations to a charity for his personal use.

Washington, who played for several NBA teams in the 1970s and 1980s, was scheduled for trial in federal court in Kansas City, Mo. Instead, he pleaded guilty Thursday to two counts of making a false statement in a tax return and one count of aggravated identity theft.

Washington was best known for throwing a punch that seriously injured Houston Rockets player Rudy Tomjanovich during a 1977 game.
