NEW YORK: Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dennis Schroder was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Sunday (Monday in Manila) after a punch to the groin of Houston forward P.J. Tucker walked up behind the German and bumped into him, sparking a confrontation that saw teammates separate the players. An NBA review determined that Tucker’s contact with Schroder did not meet the standard for a headbutt. The incident saw Schroder assessed a Flagrant Foul 2 and ejected. Tucker was assessed a technical foul and ejected as well.
