Westbrook fined for profanity used during postgame interview

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook has been fined $15,000 for using inappropriate language during a postgame interview, the NBA announced Friday.

Westbrook used a profanity when asked about his 51-point, 10-rebound, 13-assist line after the Thunder's Game 2 loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.

"I don't give a f--- about my line," Westbrook said. "We lost."

Westbrook made the comment during a news conference that was televised live by multiple outlets.
