The NBA announced Tuesday that Rockets forward Dillon Brooks and coach Ime Udoka were both fined for their run-in with official Suyash Mehta during Houston’s 128-119 loss to the Bucks on Sunday at Fiserv Forum.
Brooks was penalized $35,000 for using “inappropriate language” aimed at Mehta and for publicly criticizing officiating after the game, while Udoka was fined $25,000 for deploying vulgar language at the ref.
The exchange occurred in the final minute of Sunday’s game when Bucks forward Khris Middleton threw a bad pass that was stolen by Brooks.
