Hawks' Prince, Heat's Johnson fined $25K for altercation

Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince and Miami Heat forward James Johnson have each been fined $25,000 for their roles in an altercation during Wednesday's game.

The incident occurred in the fourth quarter of the contest after Prince sent Hassan Whiteside to the floor with a hard foul. Johnson quickly escalated the situation by shoving Prince in retaliation.

Both players were assessed Flagrant 2s for their actions and ejected from the game.

Fortunately for Johnson, he won't have to worry about his wallet being any lighter, as Whiteside has already offered to pay for his fine.
