NBA reviewing Paul-Rondo incident in Boston

(AP) NEW YORK - An NBA spokesman says the league is reviewing the postgame incident in Boston involving New Orleans guard Chris Paul and the Celtics’ Rajon Rondo.

Paul pursued Rondo toward the Celtics’ locker room and had to be blocked by Boston assistant coaches after the Celtics’ 97-87 victory on Sunday night. The point guards had been assessed matching technical fouls in the second quarter after they got tangled up under the basket.

Hornets coach Byron Scott said Monday the league didn’t call to interview him about the incident, adding "I don’t know what Rondo said, but obviously Chris took exception to it."
