The NBA has fined Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams $25,000 for wearing a T-shirt with the words "**** art, let's dance" to a press conference on Sunday, which the league deemed vulgar.
During the press conference after the decisive seventh game of the Western Conference semifinals, in which Oklahoma City defeated the Denver Nuggets, Williams did not utter a single foul word, but the NBA leadership was bothered by the inscription on his T-shirt. The white T-shirt below the inscription "**** art, let's dance" has people dancing.
There are several interpretations of this inscription, and one of them says that it is about celebrating life through dance or some other activity that gives you pleasure. Or maybe it is about an indie pop group from Hamburg, called "**** art, let's dance".
Jalen Williams, along with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, is Oklahoma City's key basketball player, averaging 19.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.7 assists in the playoffs. Oklahoma City will play against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference finals.
Western Conference playoffs for the NBA champion
The Oklahoma City Thunder basketball players reached the finals of the Western Conference playoffs for the NBA champion, defeating the Denver Nuggets 125-93 in the decisive, seventh game at their Paycom Center, and they will fight against the Minnesota Timberwolves for a place in the grand finals.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led Oklahoma scorers with 35 points. Jalen Williams had 24 points and seven assists, and Chet Holmgren added 13 points and 11 rebounds. Alex Caruso certainly deserves great credit for the convincing victory of the home team, who, along with a great defensive contribution in limiting the effect of Nikola Jokić, scored 11 points and had three steals and three assists.
Denver had too few motivated individuals, and Nikola Jokić shot only nine times from the field.
It's clear how important Williams is to his team, and it's really hard to imagine his team's success without him as an important player.
This famous basketball player can sometimes be controversial, causing reactions from the public, but this is all part of his personality.
