Indiana Pacers forward Paul George has been fined $15,000 for kicking a ball into the stands during Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls.
George was assessed a technical foul and immediately ejected following the incident. The Pacers would go on to win 111-94 despite losing the three-time All-Star in the third quarter.
The 26-year-old ended up hitting a fan in the face as a result of the kick, and later apologized for the actions.
