Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball was fined $100,000 for using derogatory language during a postgame interview. Ball made an offensive comment following the Hornets victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday, November 16.
In an on-court interview, the Charlotte star was asked about the Hornets getting a stop on the final possession to defeat the Bucks. Ball replied, “We loaded up – no homo. That’s what we wanted, put a hand up and then live with the results.”
