PHILADELPHIA (AP) Philadelphia 76ers star Allen Iverson was fined $10,000 by the NBA on Saturday for making an obscene gesture toward fans during a loss in Milwaukee earlier in the week.

Iverson made the gesture in the 76ers' 95-91 loss to the Bucks on Monday. He scored 50 points Saturday night to lead the Sixers over the Atlanta Hawks 98-86.

``I made a mistake and I deserve it,'' Iverson said of the fine.
