The Rockets head coach and forward used inappropriate language towards the game officials.

Houston Rockets player Dillon Brooks and manager Ime Udoka have both been fined for directing inappropriate language towards the referees of the team’s past game in the NBA.

Dillons was fined 35,000 dollars for publicly criticizing the referees while Ime has been fined 10,000 dollars less than its player.

The episode occurred with less than a minute until the end of the match of Houston’s 128-119 defeat against the Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum on December 17th. Brooks and Udoka were given technical fouls and ejected from the match.

The forward (27) is in his debut campaign with the Rockets, where he is scoring 14 points per match and averages almost 4 boards and 2 assists.

Ime Udoka’s organization is in 9th place in the West Conference with a 13-11 record and has a realistic chance of being in the playoff position at the end of the season.
