Technical Foul Costs KG

By Heath Bloxton
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward, Kevin Garnett, was fined $5,000 by the NBA for his actions in a game February 26. Garnett was ejected from the game because he threw the ball into the stands after he was called for an offensive foul. Not only did Garnett throw the ball into the stands, he hit a fan in the face.

Garnett claimed that he tossed the ball because he was upset with the officials and was trying to draw a delay of game call. He said that he had no intention for the ball to go into the stands and hit a fan. Garnett was immediately given a technical foul and was ejected from the game.
