Butler and Miami were fined $ 15,000 each

Miami basketball player Jimmy Butler was fined $ 15,000 for indecent gestures during the game against Atlanta in the playoffs by the NBA.

In addition to Jimmy, the club will have to pay a fine in the amount of 15,000 dollars, since he posted a video on his social networks.

Shortly after the announcement, the video was deleted.

The controversial situation happened 1:43 minutes before the end of the second quarter after Max Strus scored the second consecutive “three-point” for the series 17:0 and then followed Butler’s “dance”.

The basketball player did not even play that match due to knee injuries.

This is the third penalty for him this season, and he paid a total of $ 70,000 to the league.

He was first fined $ 30,000 for participating in an incident in a game against Denver in November, and then $ 25,000 for violating league rules regarding giving statements to the media at an All-Star game in February.
