NBA warned on Sunday Los Angeles Lakers' stars James, and Kyle Kuzma about flopping to join five other players, who have been warned before this season.
According to ESPN, the league issued warnings to Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James as well as his teammate Kyle Kuzma concerning their flops from the previous night’s 115-105 victory over the visiting Memphis Grizzlies.
"James was battling for a second-quarter rebound with Memphis’ Grayson Allen and Dillon Brooks when he fell to the floor despite minimal contact," ESPN reported.
Kuzma went down in the fourth quarter in an attempt to get an offensive foul whistled against Brooks.
What is the Regulation set by NBA if a Player repeats flopping?
The regulation says that the NBA first issues a warning to any player, who makes this mistake for the first time. If a player resumes to flop, the league can issue fines that can reach $30 000 or more for repeat offenders.
It is worth mentioning that Anthony Davis guided the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday to pull off their seventh straight victory after demolishing the Memphis Grizzlies 115-105.
Anthony Davis, who was ruled out for two games with Achilles soreness, netted 35 points as the Lakers improved to 21-6.
Also, LeBron James had 28 points for the Lakers, who have the second-best record in the NBA behind the Utah Jazz (21-5).
Four Jazz players scored at least 25 points as they defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 129-115 for their sixth consecutive win
