Roy Hibbert has been fined $75,000 for using inappropriate and vulgar language after the Indiana Pacers' Game 6 win over the Miami Heat on Saturday night.
Hibbert made a gay slur and used an expletive in response to a question regarding his candidacy as the Defensive Player of the Year.
"While Roy has issued an apology, which is no doubt sincere, a fine is necessary to reinforce that such offensive comments will not be tolerated by the NBA," David Stern said in a statement.
Hibbert apologized for his comments on Sunday.
