Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Monday, Nov. 10 for forcibly throwing his water bottle to the floor while on the bench during a Nov. 8 game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
The incident occurred with 6:25 remaining in the third quarter after Ingram fouled Sixers forward Trendon Watford on a driving layup at Philadelphia's Xfinity Mobile Arena.
Watford scored the basket and the foul before a frustrated Ingram walked to the Raptors bench, sat down and threw the water bottle on the floor in disgust. The bottle made contact with a game attendant and caused a delay to dry the court.
The referees assessed a technical foul, and Sixers guard Tyrese Maxey made the free throw before Watford made his free throw to complete the and-1. By the game's conclusion, Watford had recorded his first career triple-double with 20 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists.
Ingram had a strong game for the Raptors, recording 21 points, eight rebounds and five assists, but Philadelphia would go on to beat Toronto 130-120 in the Atlantic Division showdown.
The Raptors return to action Tuesday, Nov. 11 for a game against the Nets in Brooklyn. The 76ers host the Boston Celtics on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET in a nationally televised game on NBC.
