Andre Iguodala fined $25,000 for tossing the ball into the stands

Andre Iguodala experienced a rare ejection on Saturday, when the Golden State Warriors beat the Portland Trail Blazers. Iguodala was on the court when the halftime buzzer rang, at which point he flung the basketball very high and very far, though in the direction of the hoop. It ended up deep in the stands, and he was subsequently ejected.

The ejection felt a little odd, as players always take a wild shot at the end of a quarter, even if it’s well after the buzzer.
