Grant Williams of the Boston Celtics did a pretty dumb thing during Saturday's NBA Finals rematch against the Golden State Warriors, and now he has to get out his wallet and pay the price.
The NBA announced on Monday that Williams is being fined $20,000 for punching the ball into the crowd near the end of the game.
It happened with just under two minutes left in the fourth, and the Celtics down 101-118 to the team they lost to in the 2021-2022 NBA Finals. Interim head coach Joe Mazzulla called a time out, and that's when Williams punched the loose ball, which had rebounded to him after bouncing off the backboard.
