MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The NBA has levied fines for Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert and coach Chris Finch for their public criticisms of the officiating after their previous game. Gobert was fined $25,000 and Finch was fined $15,000. Finch and Gobert sounded off after Minnesota’s 107-100 loss at Phoenix earlier this week. The Timberwolves were called for 24 fouls compared to 16 on the Suns. Phoenix had 27 free-throw attempts to just 12 for Minnesota. Gobert raised a generalized complaint that he believes NBA officials favor high-profile teams and superstar players with close calls the Timberwolves don’t get.
