DALLAS – NBA star Kevin Durant was caught on video cussing out a fan at Saturday’s Warriors-Mavericks game.

According to TMZ Sports, Durant became upset because the fan was taunting him and called him a “cupcake,” among other insults. 

TMZ Sports also reported Durant asked the referees to intervene, but no action was taken.

A witness also told the site that Durant’s outburst was justified and the heckling was over the top.

The Mavericks beat the Warriors 112-109. Golden State then played in San Antonio on Sunday.

The NBA announced on Tuesday afternoon that Durant had been fined $25,000 for directing inappropriate language toward a fan.
