Second sanction for LeBron James in the same week. After receiving a game suspension for assault on Isaiah Stewart of the Detroit Pistons, the Lakers ‘star’ was fined $15,000 (about €13,200) for an “obscene gesture” (click image to view the video) during last Wednesday’s match with the Indiana Pacers, announced the NBA.
At stake was the celebration of LeBron, who danced for the audience with his hand on his genitals, after scoring a triple in the final stretch of the match.
LeBron was even warned by the NBA for using “profane language” during a press conference. “This is bullshit, but whatever!”, he said about the League’s disciplinary regulations.
