Orlando Magic forward Glen Davis has been fined $35,000 for making an obscene gesture in a game this week, the National Basketball Association said on Wednesday.
The hit opened a gash on Davis's scalp and he was booed by the home fans as he grimaced and checked for blood, according to a report from the Orlando Sentinel.
As Davis looked at a fan, he extended his bloodied right middle finger, put it into his mouth and licked off the blood but he did not intend to make the obscene gesture, according to the report.
