Durant directed obscene language toward a fan at Barclays Center in the second quarter of the Nets’ 113-11 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night.
On Monday, the NBA fined the Nets $50,000 for violating local New York City health and safety protocols.
During Brooklyn’s 110-107 win over the New York Knicks on Sunday, the Nets allowed Kyrie Irving in the team locker room, which contravened local law and protocols.
Irving is allowed to attend games at Barclays Center but cannot enter the workplace environment. According to local policy, the workplace environment includes the Nets’ court and locker room.
Previously, Durant was fined $15,000 for using profane language during an interview after the Brooklyn Nets’ 114-108 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Jan. 10.
And on Dec. 12, Durant was fined $25,000 by the NBA for directing obscene language toward a fan during a game in Atlanta.
The Nets will take on the Portland Trail Blazers Friday night in Brooklyn.
