As Collins walks toward the bench, he is whistled for a technical foul upon reaching the scorer's table. As the whistle blows, Collins looks back to direct another comment toward the official and is again whistled for a technical foul, resulting in an automatic ejection.

NEW YORK – San Antonio Spurs forward-center Zach Collins has been fined $35,000 for making an obscene gesture on the playing court following his ejection, it was announced today by Joe Dumars, Executive Vice President, Head of Basketball Operations.
