Julius Randle Handed $35K Fine for His Part in Game 4 Altercation
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle was fined $35,000 for his part in an altercation in the final seconds of Game 4 against the Denver Nuggets, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports. Minnesota blew out the Nuggets on home court, but forward Jaden McDaniels went for an uncontested layup with 1.3 seconds left in the fourth quarter. This irked Nikola Jokic, and the two teams got into an altercation on the court. Randle escalated the situation with several shoves. Both Jokic and Randle were ejected from the game. No suspensions were handed out for the incident. Losing more players is the last thing the Timberwolves need after Anthony Edwards (knee) and Donte DiVincenzo (Achilles) were injured in Game 5. As a result, we should see Julius Randle take on more offensive duties for the rest of the series.
