The NBA announced Friday that Washington Wizards assistant coach Sidney Lowe was fined $5,000 and the organization was fined $15,000 "for Lowe's standing on the playing court and potentially impacting game action" in Washington's 113-110 win over the New York Knicks on Thursday night, according to ESPN Radio's Alan Hahn.

The league also confirmed Lowe should have been whistled for a technical foul.

As the video shows, Lowe appeared to distract Knicks shooting guard Courtney Lee and discourage him from attempting what could have been a potential game-tying three-point attempt.
