The NBA has retroactively given Metta World Peace a flagrant foul for a play in Denver against the Nuggets on Monday.
In the final seconds of the third quarter, World Peace connected with an elbow to what looks like the face of Nuggets forward Kenneth Faried. No foul was called live by the officials (which would have meant an ejection), but the league upgraded the call on review.
World Peace now leads the league in flagrant foul points with five, tied with teammate Dwight Howard.
