Houston Rockets veteran Corey Brewer has been fined by the NBA for violating its anti-flopping rules in game two against the Los Angeles Clippers.
With 63 seconds remaining in the first quarter, Clippers guard Lester Hudson was called for an offensive foul against Brewer for pushing off.
However, Brewer flew into the basket support during the push-off in a bid to over-exaggerate the contact to get the call.
The veteran is the second Rockets player to be fined for flopping this season, with guard Jason Terry also receiving disciplinary action in the last round.
Los Angeles were whistled for 40 fouls in the game, while Houston set a playoff franchise record for foul shot attempts at 64, and foul shot makes at 42.
