Rudy Gobert was fined $25,000 for saying the F-word on live TV — the equivalent of about $30 to the average Joe
After Utah beat the Dallas Mavericks 100-99 — during which Gobert scored the final points with an alley-oop dunk assisted by Donovan Mitchell — the 7'1" center was interviewed live on TNT.
"There's a lot of talk about what this team can and can't be in the postseason, as you're well aware," reporter Matt Winer said as Gobert chuckled."What is the potential of this Utah group?" "Man, f*** the talk," Gobert said."We just try to be the best team we can be, we try to enjoy the moment, and whatever happens happens."— Bleacher Report April 23, 2022 The 3-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year clearly needed to let off some steam... but at what cost? A whopping $25,000.
Now, a fine of that amount would be devastating for the average Utahn or American. But not for someone who makes $41 million a year. Gobert is currently on a 5-year, $205 million contract. Crunching some numbers, this means he was fined 0.06 percent of his yearly income.Anyway, the Jazz-Mavs first-round playoff series is now tied 2-2. Their next game is back in Dallas at 7:30 p.m. .
