WASHINGTON — Anthony Edwards has yet another bill to pay to the NBA. The Minnesota Timberwolves star has been fined $50,000 for making obscene gestures toward a game official. The league announced the punishment before Minnesota played at Washington. It cited his conduct with 1:26 left in the third quarter of the 127-125 loss to Memphis on Saturday when Edwards received his NBA-leading ninth technical foul of the season. Edwards has been penalized a total of $285,000 by the league this season for five different behavioral transgressions, mostly for language. The two-time All-Star is in his fifth season in the league.
