The NBA has fined Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving $50,000 after he made "obscene gestures" and used "profane language" during a game this week, the league announced Tuesday.
On Sunday, during the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs against the Boston Celtics, Irving gave the crowd at TD Garden the middle finger, according to CBS Sports, and directed "profane language" toward them, Byron Spruell, president of league operations, said in a statement. The crowd had been booing him and chanting "Kyrie sucks," CBS Sports reported.
The Nets lost to the Celtics 115-114.
