The NBA has fined New York Knicks player Julius Randle $50,000 for several infractions in the last loss against the Phoenix Suns by a tight 115-114.
The New Yorkers fell in the last second of the match with a three-pointer over the buzzer by Cameron Johnson, the true hero of the day in the absence of his teammates Chris Paul and Devin Booker.
Precisely Randle would be expelled at the end of the third period for his direct confrontation with Johnson, who finished with 38 points and a fantastic 9 of 12 in triples starting as a reserve.
Bottom line: Randle has been sanctioned not only for his fight with Johnson. Also for confronting a referee of the crash and for not complying with the NBA when he was investigating the incident that occurred in the Arizona pavilion.
