Rodney Hood has been fined $35,000 for slapping a phone out of a fan’s hand while exiting the court.

The incident occurred following Hood’s ejection for receiving his second technical foul of the game with 2:21 remaining in the third quarter of the Jazz’s 107-104 win over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday, Jan. 10 at Capital One Arena.

What a punk. I would've fined him 100K plus ordered to buy all the fans in the arena a new iPhone X

Does the fan get compensation? Don't think he did anything bad or wrong?

if he did that to me, I would Have stood up and pushed him and made him look like a wuss on tv for that. He assaulted, commited battery, and destruction of property. I would have defended myself then sue him for nominal and punitive damages if towards of $2 million for placing his thug hands on me.

Good one. Don't forget, moms said wash the dishes and do some chores, before you go out with your friends tonight.

Does $35000 teach other players that it’s not ok to commit assault and battery on fans, and destroy rheir personal property like thugs ? Hopefully

lol.. a Thug? Now there's some inflammatory language if I've ever read any lately. You sure you want your display image being a black "thug" "violently slamming" that ball in the the net like that?

Maybe a red trump hat would suit your display photo a little (read, MUCH) better.

are you feelings hurt? The definition of the word thug in meriam Webster as well as oxford is a criminal. By slapping someones haND and causing destruction to property costing $1000+ if the phone is broken, he absolutely committed a crime using physical force and he absolutely acted like a thug and not like a basketball player

Right, I'm sure you're well aware the term thug is constantly used as a racial slur aimed at blacks and that's not lost on you. But it's adorable you're overreacting to a phone being slapped out of a guys hand by calling it assault and battery yet asking another person if their feelings are hurt. I'm sure you make the Celtics feel proud in knowing they have a fan like you.

funny I don't recall mentioning race anywhere ever. Everything must be racist to you .. I don't slap people or break their expensive personal property, so yes they are proud. We actually at the Celtics board all agreed with hood acting like a criminal thug so I'm not sure what you're trying to get at. You support Thugs breaking phones and slapping people? You know nba players aren't above the law right?

I honestly just find it funny that you defend the despicable act hood committed. Like the other joker who mentioned something about trump earlier in this thread as if that's relevant. You want to defend hood somehow for some odd reason but can't so you change the subject to racism or trump

So taking issue with your blatant problematic word choices to characterize black athletes mean that we now support Rodney Hood doing something he shouldn't have? LOL.

Are you wearing that red hat right now? Yowza.

I don't think you have to worry about a player assualting you way up in the nose bleed section.
