A ball throw at… $25,000 for Victor Wembanyama. In heaven after his 40 points, 20 rebounds and 7 assists, in an overtime victory against the Knicks, the Frenchman sent the ball into the stands of the Frost Bank Center as soon as the buzzer sounded and the NBA fined him. The norm after such a gesture of frustration or satisfaction towards the public.
A sanction that “Wemby” will undoubtedly not soon forget, since it is quite simply his first fine in the United States. Since he earns $12.2 million this season, that represents 0.002% of his salary.
