Celtics' Jae Crowder, Wizards' John Wall fined for roles in confrontation Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Jae Crowder and Washington Wizards guard John Wall were both fined for their roles in an after-the-buzzer confrontation on Wednesday night at TD Garden, the NBA announced Saturday.

Crowder was fined $25,000 for his role in the confrontation and for attempting to escalate the situation after exiting the playing court. Wall was fined $15,000 for his role in the on-court confrontation.

Wall and Crowder exchanged words after Boston's 117-108 victory. Crowder jabbed a finger in Wall's nose and Wall responded by attempting to land an open-hand slap before teammates and staffers rushed in between the two players.
