During the game between the Charlotte Hornets and the Cavaliers in Cleveland (a 100-99 loss for the Hornets), Dwight Howard stuck his tongue out towards fans of the home team after a dunk on Jae Crowder.
For this move, that was considered as an “obscene gesture on the playing court” by the NBA, Howard was fined $35,000, league Executive Vice President Kiki Vandeweghe announced.
Howard posted a double-double of 20 points/13 rebounds in that game.
