The NBA has decided to rescind the technical foul that San Antonio Spurs star DeMar DeRozan received for taunting Chris Boucher in Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors, according to a report from Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express-News.

DeRozan played well against his former team, finishing with 25 points on 7-of-12 shooting, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. The Spurs trailed by as many as 18-points, but the team managed to rally for a 105-104 victory.

With just over three minutes remaining in the third quarter and the Raptors holding a 76-59 advantage, DeRozan drove from the top of the key and proceeded to throw down a ferocious dunk over Boucher, who was trying to help out on the weak side.

DeRozan's one-handed slam over Boucher left the fans inside Scotiabank Arena silent. A few murmurs were heard as the two players helped themselves up from the floor. It was at this time that the Spurs talent was hit with a taunting foul.

Boucher, who finished Sunday's game with seven points and three rebounds, later shrugged off DeRozan's jam, noting that ā€œit's going to happen.ā€

ā€œI was just trying to block the shot,ā€ Boucher said after the game, via ESPN's Tim Bontemps. ā€œIā€™m a shot blocker, so you get some & you miss some. Iā€™ve blocked a thousand shots.

ā€œItā€™s going to happen,ā€ Boucher added. ā€œI think everybody knows thatā€™s what I do. He got me this time, I might get him the next time.ā€

The Spurs have won three of their last five games. They'll look to keep that momentum rolling on Wednesday night, when they face off against the Miami Heat.
