Warriors coach Steve Kerr fined $25,000 for verbally abusing NBA official

Steve Kerr's All-Star break vacation just got a little more expensive.

Kerr was fined $25,000 for verbally abusing and confronting a game official in Wednesday night's loss to the Blazers, the NBA announced on Thursday afternoon.

The fine should come as no surprise to Kerr, who got ejected after going on a tirade towards official Kenny Mauer after Draymond Green was assessed a flagrant foul late in the 4th quarter.

"I was just shocked that that was called a flagrant foul," Kerr said following the game.
