Nic Claxton was called for a flagrant foul late in Brooklyn 's 107 -99 loss to the Washington Wizards on Monday night .

While fighting for a rebound in the paint, Claxton shoved Wizards big man Justin Champagnie in the back — which caused him to crash down to the court hard.

The 25-year-old will serve that suspension on Wednesday night when the Nets host the Oklahoma City Thunder .
