Justise Winslow gets $15K fine for stepping on Joel Embiid's mask

MIAMI -- Heat wing Justise Winslow was fined $15,000 for intentionally stepping on the facemask of Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid, the NBA announced.

Winslow stepped on Embiid's mask in the second quarter of the Sixers' Game 3 win over the Heat.

"Justise stepped on it and tried to break it with his hands, but little do they know is I have about 50 of them, so it's going to take much more than that to get me out of this series," Embiid said after Game 3.

Sixers coach Brett Brown said he didn't have an issue with Winslow stepping on Embiid's mask.
