DUSTIN MAY COMPLETE GAME ONE-HIT SHUTOUT 🔥

[Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar]

Typically it’s a $25,000 fine for violating media obligations.

Typically players get suspended or fined for elbowing opponents in the throat.

[Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA]

The referees were correct in denying Mitch Johnson that challenge. The rule is very specific: he needs to first call timeout, then challenge. He never signaled for the timeout before signaling for the challenge.
