Roy Hibbert receives flop warning
Pat Lovell-USA TODAY Sports
Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert received a warning for violating the NBA's anti-flopping rule against the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday.
Although the league did not identify the particular play in question, chances are it was a post battle with Portland's Robin Lopez, during which the 7-foot-2, 278-pound Hibbert fell to the floor.
The warning is Hibbert's first of the season. His second offense would come with a $5,000 fine.
