The Grizzlies' man was in no mood to talk after heavy defeat to Lakers

The NBA has fined Dillon Brooks $25,000 for violating the media rules, which oblige each player to hold a post-match interiew.

After Game 3,4 and 6 against Los Angeles Lakers, which the Grizzlies lost, Brooks infamously declined to speak to the media.

The only words he gave were “I’m out” after Game 4 and he even hinted that the media are trying to make him the villain.

That didn’t go well with the government body as it took immediate actions to sanction the enigmatic player.

He also faced a heavy backlash from Shannon Sharpe, who criticized Brooks for his antics.

The Grizzlies were eliminated 4-2 in the first round of the playoffs to the Lakers.
