Sacramento Kings forward Travis Outlaw has been fined $15,000 by the NBA for pulling down Los Angeles Clippers guard J.J. Redick on a fast break.

The play occurred with 8:06 left in the Clippers' 103-102 victory on Saturday. Outlaw received a flagrant-2 foul and was ejected, the first ejection of Outlaw's career.

After the game, Outlaw told The Sacramento Bee:

"When I reached out I couldn't stop him from falling. I was trying to but he was too strong and he went on down. It happens I guess. . . . I was surprised but he fell kind of hard. Then the (Clippers) rushing over there. I think the situation made it more than what it was."
