In his 11-year journeyman career, Brooklyn Nets forward Reggie Evans has finally made history: He is the first NBA player to be fined for flopping.
Evans was fined $5,000 for his second flopping offense, a league source told Yahoo! Sports on Wednesday.
Under the NBA's new policy, players get one warning for flopping before
an escalation of fines for ensuing flops is instituted. The league
office identified an instance of flopping on Evans in the Nets' loss to
the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.
