NEW YORK — Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton has been fined $35,000 for making an inappropriate hand gesture during a game, the NBA said Tuesday.
The incident happened during Chicago’s 123-115 loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. He made the flip-off gesture toward the basket after making a free throw with 1:31 remaining in the third quarter.
Sexton scored 21 points in the game, but made just 7 of 18 field goals.
The 27-year-old guard joined the Bulls on Thursday in the Coby White trade with the Charlotte Hornets.
