LaMelo Ball fined $35,000 for making obscene gesture at referee
The NBA has fined LaMelo Ball $35,000 for making an obscene gesture toward a referee during the Hornets’ matchup against the Miami Heat this week.
The incident occurred in the final minutes at Kaseya Center, when Ball, frustrated after being called for an offensive foul, raised his middle finger and received a technical foul. Earlier in the game, he also accidentally kicked the ball into opponent Davion Mitchell’s face.
Despite Ball leading Charlotte with 20 points, the Hornets fell 144-117 to Miami and currently hold a 2-2 record this season. Over six years with the team, the former Rookie of the Year has averaged 21.1 points per game, though the franchise has yet to return to the playoffs since 2015-16.
