NBA fines Sacramento Kings coach US$50K after outburst against official

NEW YORK The NBA fined Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown US$50,000 on Tuesday for his court storming outburst against a referee. Top sports headlines, all in one place Joe Dumars, the league's head of basketball operations, announced the fine against Brown for “aggressively pursuing a game official during live play, and for publicly criticizing the officiating" after his team's 143 142 overtime loss to Milwaukee on Sunday night.

“The referees are human, and they’re going to make mistakes, but you just hope that there’s some sort of consistency and there’s some sort of communication between the refs,” Brown said after the game. “The refs tonight, they were great, they communicated with me all night. But in terms of consistency, you guys saw it right here.

In my opinion, the consistency wasn’t here tonight.” The Bucks won on Damian Lillard's 3 pointer at the overtime buzzer. Related Stories Warriors forward Draymond Green committed to playing without 'antics' that have plagued him Ja Morant's season is over because of a shoulder injury.
