NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2026 – Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks has been suspended one game without pay for receiving his 16th technical foul of the 2025-26 season, it was announced today by James Jones, Executive Vice President, Head of Basketball Operations.
Under NBA rules, a player or coach is automatically suspended without pay for one game once he receives his 16th technical foul during a regular season. For every two additional technical fouls received during that regular season, the player or coach will be automatically suspended without pay for an additional game.
Brooks received his most recent technical foul with 6:37 remaining in the second quarter of the Suns’ 136-109 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Feb. 11 at Mortgage Matchup Center. Brooks will serve his suspension Feb. 19 when the Suns visit the San Antonio Spurs at Frost Bank Center.
