On August 23, 2020, the NBA handed down fines to two players involved in a heated exchange during a playoff game.

Marvin Williams of the Milwaukee Bucks and James Ennis of the Orlando Magic were each fined $15,000 (approximately Sh1.6 million) for their roles in the altercation.

The incident occurred in the second quarter of the game, which the Bucks ultimately won 121-107 in the NBA's quarantine bubble in Orlando, Florida.

According to reports, Williams and Ennis became involved in a physical confrontation under the basket, with Ennis shoving Williams and Williams pushing back before grabbing Ennis's jersey.

Ennis then appeared to swing a fist in an attempt to free himself, leading to the ejection of both players.
