On Tuesday, the NBA has announced that Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving has been fined $50,000 for incidents that took place on Sunday with fans during Game 1 in Boston against the Celtics.

Irving was being heckled by the crowd all afternoon, and he threw up two middle fingers behind his head to the stands, which was captured in a clip that went viral all over social media.

The Nets lost the game 115-114 on a Jayson Tatum buzzer beater.

However, Irving did explode for an impressive 39 points against his former team.
