Gobert fined $15K for criticizing officiating

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert has been fined $15,000 by the NBA for his public criticism of officiating following the team's 102-100 loss to the Miami Heat on Dec.2, the league announced Tuesday.

The 26-year-old sounded off after a late foul call on him led to the game-winning free throws from Dwyane Wade.

In 24 games played, Gobert is averaging career highs in points (15.4) and rebounds (13.0) while adding 2.1 blocks per contest.
