Lakers' Odom suspended for leaving bench area

NEW YORK (AP) -- The NBA has suspended Lakers forward Lamar Odom one game without pay for leaving the bench area during an altercation.



NBA executive vice president of operations Stu Jackson ruled Tuesday that Odom left the "immediate vicinity" of the bench after teammate Trevor Ariza's hard foul on Portland's Rudy Fernandez with 2.2 seconds remaining in the third quarter Monday touched off a skirmish between the teams.

Odom will miss the Lakers' game in Houston on Wednesday.
