Jalen Green was fined $25,000 for using profanity during a teammate's postgame interview after Monday night's game against the Washington Wizards, the NBA announced Tuesday. Green interrupted guard Collin Gillespie, who scored 25 points on 10-of-14 shooting in a 115-101 Suns victory, while celebrating on the court. Green did not play in the game and has appeared in only two games this season while managing a hamstring injury. The fine addresses the use of inappropriate language during an on-court interview and underscores league enforcement of conduct standards following team celebrations and media interactions.
