Kyle O’Quinn of the Orlando Magic has been fined $15,000 by the NBA for his flagrant 2 foul on the Clippers’ Blake Griffin midway through the second quarter of Wednesday’s 114-86 Clippers victory over the Magic at Staples Center.

With the Clippers leading 38-35 at the time, Griffin drove the paint and as he was going up he was raked hard across the face by O’Quinn. Griffin went down.

In a statement, the NBA wrote that O’Quinn received the fine “for making excessive contact above the shoulders” with Griffin. The punishment was meted out by Rod Thorn, president of basketball operations for the NBA.
