‘Shut the f*** up’: Clippers forward Harrell fined $25k for cursing at a fan (VIDEO)
Los Angeles Clippers forward Montrezl Harrell has been fined $25,000 by the NBA for hurling profanities at a fan who attended a game in Minnesota on Monday night.
The controversial episode took place in the fourth quarter of a game against the Timberwolves when Harrell was caught on camera telling a fan sitting nearby to “shut up.”
“Sit over there and be a fan. Shut the f*** up,” Harrell turned to the fan who apparently said something about the game a moment earlier.
