Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony was fined $25,000 for directing profane and derogatory remarks towards a game official. The incident occurred as the Orlando Magic lost to the LA Clippers on Wednesday.

On the broadcast, Anthony appeared to be upset over several non-calls as Magic players drove to the basket during the fourth quarter. He was also upset at some foul calls that went against Orlando during the same period of time.

Kristaps Porzingis of the Dallas Mavericks has been fined $15,000 for kicking the game ball into the stands. Porzingis was given a technical foul and ejected from the game in the fourth quarter of the Mavs 130-92 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday.

With Dallas trailing by 24 points, Porzingis fumbled a pass out of bounds in transition. Out of frustration, he then kicked the ball into the stands.

The NBA fined the Brooklyn Nets $25,000 and assistant coach David Vanterpool $10,000 for interfering with a ball in play. The incident happened midway through the fourth quarter of the Nets victory over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday.

Vanterpool was gesturing on the sideline and deflected a pass thrown by Washington. It ended up in a live-ball turnover with Brooklyn gaining possession.

Following the game, lead official Ben Taylor said that neither he nor his crew saw the deflection live. Because there was no stoppage of play, there was no opportunity to review what happened.

The NBA has fined Julius Randle $25,000 for "egregious use of profane language" in recent media appearances. The New York Knicks forward was fined for comments after a practice on Wednesday, January 5 and after the game vs the Boston Celtics on Thursday, January 6.

Randle has struggled this season and has come under fire from Knicks fans for his poor play. In the win over Boston, Randle was seen giving New York fans the thumbs down symbol, as well as yelling at the crowd. The next day, Randle issues a lengthy apology for his behavior towards the home fans.
