Golden State Warriors star base Stephen Curry was fined $ 50,000 today ($ 42,530) after he pitched his mouth guard against a match referee his team disputed against the Grizzlies of Memphis.
The executive vice president of operations of the NBA, Kiki VanDeWeghe, was in charge to make known the fine imposed on the star of the Warriors.

His partner, guard Andre Iguodala was also fined $ 15,000 (12,750 euros) for using abusive language against one of the referees who led the match.
