Nikola Vucevic found out exactly how much a middle finger aimed in the general direction of a fan costs.
The NBA made that very clear to him on Friday, punishing the Bulls big man by putting him in the corner with a $15,000 fine.
The fine? Vucevic is making about $270,000 per game this season, so couch cushion money for him.
As far as publicly being put in the corner? Well, that’s actually a good thing for Vucevic right now.
With 2:46 left in the loss to New Orleans on Wednesday, it looked like it would be Vucevic that would play hero, hitting his second three-pointer within 90 seconds and giving the Bulls the one-point lead.
