Houston Rockets’ Dillon Brooks has been fined $25,000 by the NBA for “recklessly making contact” with Indiana Pacers’ Daniel Theis

Houston Rockets’ Dillon Brooks has been fined $25,000 by the NBA for “recklessly making contact” with Indiana Pacers’ Daniel Theis in the groin area during a preseason game. This led to Brooks’ ejection just 4:33 minutes into his first game with the Rockets. Brooks, who joined the Rockets as a free agent this offseason, stated he didn’t intentionally strike Theis and believes the ejection was due to his reputation. He commented on the incident, suggesting that the referee’s decision questioned his character and was based on hearsay.
