NEW YORK – The Orlando Magic's Jason Williams was suspended one game without pay by the NBA on Friday for making contact with a game official after he was ejected from a game.



NBA executive vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson announced the punishment on Friday, hours before the Magic played the Miami Heat.

Williams will be eligible to return for Orlando's next contest on Tuesday at New York.

Williams was ejected with 58 seconds left in the fourth quarter of the Magic's 112-83 victory over Washington on Thursday.

Williams was upset with a foul called against him and, while arguing, tugged on referee Bennett Salvatore's arm.
