Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson was fined $15,000 for "throwing a forearm above the shoulders" of Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic, the league announced on Monday via official release. The incident occurred with 5:29 remaining in the third quarter of the Lakers’ 127-100 win over the Heat on Jan. 6 in Los Angeles, and can be viewed here.
Clarkson actually thought the punishment handed down from the league was going to be much worse.
