'Finger' nets Glen Davis $35,000 fine

NEW YORK, March 28 (UPI) -- The NBA fined Orlando Magic forward Glen Davis $35,000 Wednesday for making an obscene gesture during a game in Toronto, league officials said.

The Orlando Sentinel reported after Davis discovered he was bleeding from a cut on his head inflicted by a Raptors player in the second quarter of their game Monday, some Toronto fans booed and razzed him.

Davis, who had some blood on his fingertips, looked at a fan and extended his right middle finger. He then put it into his mouth and licked off the blood.

Orlando went on to a 117-101 win.

Davis, 26, is averaging 7.6 points and 4.6 rebounds a game this season.
