NBA: Jordan Clarkson fined $25K for contact with official [WATCH]

Utah Jazz supersub Jordan Clarkson was fined $25,000 after making contact with an official Thursday during their game against the Phoenix Suns.

Clarkson stole the ball from a Suns player early in the 2nd quarter, but couldn’t control his momentum as he collided with one of the referees.

However, Clarkson did not like what seemed to be a missed opportunity for a fastbreak lay-up and decided to give the referee a shove.

That merited him a technical foul, to which the Utah bench also disagreed with.

The Suns eventually won, 106-95. Clarkson had 12 points off the bench in the loss.
