The NBA fined Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown $35,000 on Monday because of “public criticism of the officiating” after the team’s 100-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs over the weekend.
Brown went on an extended rant directed at the officiating crew after the game, including singling out crew chief Curtis Blair by name.
Boston shot just four free throws in the contest.
“I feel like, honestly, they just got away with a lot, and I’m tired of the inconsistency,” Brown said. “I’ll accept the fine at this point. I thought it was some bulls— tonight. I think [the Spurs are] a good defensive team, but they ain’t that damn good.”
