NBA fines Grizzlies’ Brooks $35k for shoving camera person

By The Associated Press on March 17, 2023.

NEW YORK – The NBA fined Memphis Grizzlies guard-forward Dillon Brooks US$35,000 on Friday for shoving a camera person on the sideline after chasing a loose ball in a loss in Miami.

Joe Dumars, the NBA’s executive vice president and head of basketball operations, announced the fine.

Brooks shoved the person with 2:40 left in the second quarter of Memphis’ 138-119 loss in Miami to the Heat on Wednesday night.

Brooks, from Mississauga, Ont., was disciplined for the second time this month. He was suspended for Memphis’s 135-129 loss at the Los Angeles Clippers on March 5 after picking up his 16th technical of the season in a loss at Denver two days earlier.

The Grizzlies wrap up a three-game road swing Friday night at the San Antonio Spurs.
