NBA fines Richaun Holmes $15K for throwing headband

During Wednesday night's 112-99 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans at Golden 1 Center, Sacramento Kings forward-center Richaun Holmes was ejected after receiving his second technical foul with 9:49 remaining in the third quarter.

The technical foul was called after Holmes reacted to receiving his fourth personal foul of the game. Like most players often are, Holmes was unhappy with the officiating of the game.

Being the passionate and emotional player that he is, Holmes couldn’t just walk away peacefully. While heading to the bench he frustratedly ripped off his headband and launched it into the crowd, prompting official Tony Brothers to throw him out of the game.
