Pacers forward Pascal Siakam has been fined $25K for “confronting and directing profane language toward game officials,” the league announced in a press release.
Aside from a couple of technical fouls, which cost him a total of $4K, this is the first time Siakam has been fined this season, according to Spotrac. In fact, it’s the first time he has been publicly fined since 2021.
As an unrestricted free agent last summer, Siakam re-signed with the Pacers on a four-year, $189M contract. He’s earning about $42.2M this season, so losing $25K won’t affect him much financially.
Indiana faces the Bulls in Chicago on Monday, followed by a home game vs. Milwaukee on Tuesday.
