Nets star Kyrie Irving was fined thousands of dollars on Tuesday after he flipped his middle finger to Celtics fans during the first game of their playoffs over the weekend.

According to NBA, the fines were made after the Nets guard made "obscene gestures" on the playing court and directed profane language at the spectator stands, per TMZ Sports.

The $50,000 fine is the maximum amount allowed to be vested on Irving after what he did during the Celtics and Nets' game one, SB Nation noted.

Reports claimed that the fines were rooted in four different incidents during the weekend's match where Irving interacted with the Celtics fans.

One was when Kyrie was caught on camera giving the middle finger to the crowd after hitting a tough fadeaway jump shot over Jaylen Brown.

SBA Nation shared that the Nets guard also mimicked crying faces as a way to mock the Celtics fans behind him who were seining taunts his way.

Another behind-the-scenes video surfaced on social media showing Kyrie Irving giving two middle fingers to the fans while he was holding his hands behind his head.

Finally, Irving was reportedly caught on camera responding to a fan taunt in which he said "s*** my d***."

It was not the first time that Irving was fined over his response to the fans.

Earlier this year Kyrie was hit with a $25,000 fine after he clapped back at a fan in Cleveland who was giving him a hard time, TMZ Sports reported.
