The NBA fined Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards $50,000 for "using profane language during a media interview," the league announced Wednesday.
Edwards made the comment while criticizing his play following the Timberwolves' 114-88 loss Tuesday to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, saying: "I definitely got to shoot more. I only took 13 f-----g shots."
The fine marks Edwards' eighth of the season, putting his total at over $400,000 on the campaign.
Edwards posted 18 points, nine rebounds, and three assists Tuesday.
Game 2 takes place Thursday in Oklahoma City.
