Howard pinagmulta ng $35K dahil sa flagrant foul
NEW YORK -- Pinagmulta si Los Angeles La-kers center Dwight Howard ng NBA ng $35,000 noong Huwebes dahil sa kanyang flagrant foul kay Kenneth Faried ng Denver Nuggets.
Napatalsik si Howard sa 5:02 sa third quarter sa 114-126 kabiguan ng Lakers sa Nuggets noong Miyekules.
Tinawagan siya ng flagrant foul 2 nang sungal-ngalin niya sa mukha si Faried habang pasalaksak ang Denver forward.
Natumba si Faried sa sahig ngunit ipinagpatuloy ang paglalaro. Matapos ang laro, inamin ni Howard na isang hard foul ang naibigay niya.
“I was surprised it was a flagrant 2,” ani Howard. “My intention was never to hurt Faried. I like the young fellow and my intention was just to foul. I come down the lane, somebody is going to foul me hard, put me on the free throw line and make me shoot free throws. It was the same kind of thing.”
