OKLAHOMA CITY — Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards was fined $50,000 for “using profane language during a media interview,” the NBA announced Wednesday.

Following the Wolves’ 114-88 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals Tuesday, Edwards lamented during his postgame news conference that he “only took 13 f—ing shots” in the defeat.

Edwards finished with 18 points in the game, his second-lowest scoring output of the postseason.

The fine bumped the 23-year-old’s total discipline bill by the league to $430,000 for the season.

Oklahoma City leads the best-of-seven series 1-0, with Game 2 on Thursday (8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN).
