In 2018, Rodney Hood got fined $35,000 for knocking away a fan’s phone while walking by.
Apparently, Jusuf Nurkic getting in the face of a Pacers fan cost $5,000, because the Trail Blazers center’s phone-throwing incident drew a $40,000 fine.
NBA release:
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic has been fined $40,000 for confronting a fan courtside and grabbing the fan’s cell phone and throwing it into the spectator stands, it was announced today by Byron Spruell, President, League Operations.
The incident occurred following the Trail Blazers’ 129-98 loss to the Indiana Pacers on March 20 |
