Adam Silver on Magic Johnson tampering fine: ‘Stop talking about players on other teams’

Last summer, the Lakers were hit with a $500,000 fine when Lakers president Magic Johnson went on the Jimmy Kimmel show and "wink, wink" talked about bringing Paul George to the Los Angeles. It was pretty clear he was going to get fined by the league for tampering the second the words came out of his mouth, even if that had 0.0 percent chance of impacting PG13's decision. Last week, Magic and the Lakers were hit with a $50,000 fine because Magic had been asked to comment on Giannis Antetokounmpo and Magic praised him as a future MVP and someone who could win titles — never mentioning bringing him to the Lakers once.
