Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George is facing a hefty $35,000 fine from the NBA for his public criticism of referees after the recent loss against the Denver Nuggets.
The fine comes as a consequence of George’s comments to the media, where he expressed frustration, stating that it felt like his team was playing against “three extra guys,” a clear reference to the officiating crew.
The NBA’s decision to impose the fine was influenced by George’s history of publicly criticizing referees, marking this as another instance that has caught the league’s attention.
