NEW YORK (TICKER) -- A little over a week after his return from a 30-game
suspension, Indiana Pacers swingman Stephen Jackson will be on the sidelines
again.

NBA senior vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson announced
Thursday that Jackson has been suspended one game without pay for verbal
abuse of an official.

Jackson will serve his suspension during Friday's game against Dallas.

The incident occurred after Wednesday's 97-96 loss to the Toronto Raptors in
which Jackson's sloppy defense cost the Pacers the win.

With 1.9 seconds left, the Raptors ran a play for Jalen Rose, who curled
around the top of the key and leaned into Jackson, who could not move his
feet quick enough and committed the foul.

Rose sank both free throws to lift Toronto to just its fourth road win in 24
games this season. Without any timeouts, Indiana had to attempt a long
inbounds pass that was deflected away as time expired.

Jackson was curt and testy after the game. He berated the media for asking
about the team's recent woes and the call at the end of the game.

"Why do you ask those dumb questions? Are you trying to get me fined? Don't
you think we've been fined enough?" Jackson said. "No more questions about
calls, and that goes for all of you."
