A rival of the Portland Trail Blazers is being asked by the league to pay up, according to ESPN’s Tim Bontemps.

The NBA announced Rudy Gobert has been fined $100,000 for his actions towards, and comments about, the officials during and after Friday’s loss to Cleveland.

Gobert made some shocking remarks about the officials after the Minnesota Timberwolves lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.

“Mistakes happen. Referees make mistakes, too. Sometimes I think it’s more than mistakes. And I’m gonna stay at that,” Gobert said after Friday’s loss.
