Laker Fined $500,000

The Los Angeles Lakers fined Vladimir Radmanovic $500,000 for lying about how he injured his shoulder. Originally Radmanovic stated he slipped on some ice, seperating his shoulder upon bracing for impact with the frozen tundra.

Lakers bought it, and all was good.

Then last week he told the organization that his story was a lie. While there may have been ice involved, he was not walking down the sidewalk. No, Vlad Rad was giving his best attempt at snowboarding, an activity that is prohibited in his contract.

The Lakers have decided to fine Radmanovic 10% of his salary, adding up to the $500,000

He deserved it. What asshole is going to risk that much money on snowboarding?

When you're a foot taller than the average man, putting your feet on a sled, skates or wheels is not a good idea. It's not even like he was an accomplished snowboarder. This was his first time trying it.
