Jason Kidd has been fined $50,000 by the NBA for intentionally spilling a drink on the floor to delay the Brooklyn Nets' game on Wednesday night, the NBA announced Thursday.

Kidd spilled a beverage on the floor late in the Nets' loss to the Los Angeles Lakers that allowed a brief huddle and was seen telling Tyshawn Taylor, "Hit me," to execute the drop of the cup.

Kidd was hired as the Nets' head coach in the offseason. Brooklyn is 4-11 this season.
