Kings coach Mike Brown fined $25K by NBA for comments toward official

The NBA fined Sacramento Kings head coach Mike Brown $25,000 on Friday for “aggressively pursuing and directing profane language toward a game official.”

Brown was ejected after receiving two technical fouls during the third quarter of Sacramento’s 124-123 win over the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday.

He ran out onto the court to argue with the refs after point guard De’Aaron Fox was assessed a technical foul.

Associate head coach Jordi Fernandez took over for Brown on the bench.

The Kings are sixth in the Western Conference with a 15-12 record.
