Kobe Bryant was just fined $100k by the NBA for his homophobic slur at the Lakers game last night.
NBA Commissioner David Stern says, "Kobe Bryant’s comment during last night’s game was offensive and inexcusable. "
He continues, "While I’m fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated. Accordingly, I have fined Kobe $100,000. Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society.”
As we previously reported, Kobe mouthed the words, "f**king f**got" after getting a technical foul during the game.
