The NBA has fined Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards $40,000 for making anti-LGBTQ remarks in a video on his Instagram account.
The video, apparently from the weekend of Sept. 10, was posted to his Instagram account but soon deleted.
The NBA on Tuesday called Edwards' language "offensive and derogatory."
In 2011, the Chicago Bulls’ Joakim Noah was fined a similar amount for hurling an anti-gay slur at a fan.
“We are disappointed in the language and actions Anthony Edwards displayed on social media,” the team’s president of basketball operations, Tim Connelly, said in a statement.
