NBA fines 76ers' Drummond, Magic's Suggs $25,000 each

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond and Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs were each fined $25,000 by the NBA on Saturday for violations from games two days earlier.

Text size:

Drummond was fined for making what was called "an objectionable gesture on the playing court" with eight seconds remaining in the third quarter of the 76ers' 139-118 victory at Sacramento on Thursday.

Drummond made a motion to the Kings' bench as if he were shooting a gun.

Suggs was fined for throwing his mouthpiece in the direction of the spectator stands, which brought a technical foul, with 5:35 remaining in the first quarter of Orlando's 130-111 loss at Charlotte on Thursday.

The Magic, who have lost three games in a row, rank sixth in the Eastern Conference at 38-31.

Philadelphia ranks ninth in the East at 38-32, just ahead of Charlotte (36-34).
