Ibaka fined US$25,000 for hit on Griffin

OKLAHOMA City forward Serge Ibaka has been fined US$25,000 by the National Basketball Association for striking Blake Griffin of the Los Angeles Clippers in the groin area during last Sunday's game in Los Angeles.

NBA executive vice president for basketball operations Stu Jackson announced the fine on Tuesday. The league also upgraded the Flagrant Foul 1 the Spaniard was given for hitting Griffin as the two battled for position in the paint to a Flagrant Foul 2, meaning Ibaka should have been ejected. The incident occurred with 1:52 remaining in the fourth quarter of the Thunder's 108-104 win.
