Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook (left) and forward Paul George (center) and forward Kawhi Leonard (right).
The Clippers have been fined $25K for an injury reporting violation, the NBA announced on Friday.
According to the league, the Clips “failed to accurately disclose the availability status of Paul George, Norman Powell and Russell Westbrook” in advance of the team’s regular-season finale against Houston on April 14. The three players were not cited on L.A.’s injury report as being out for injury or rest, and none of them ended up playing.
With a 51-31 record, the Clippers enter the playoffs as the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference. They’ll face the Mavericks in their first-round series.
Star forward Kawhi Leonard, who is battling right knee inflammation, is considered questionable for Sunday’s Game 1.
