Before Friday night’s Cavaliers-Wizards game (which featured LeBron James scoring 57 points), Washington’s Kelly Oubre Jr. showed up to Capital One Arena in a fur coat that said “Fuck You” on the back. Oubre showed off the jacket to reporters as he approached the Wizards’ locker room.

ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reports that the NBA plans to review Oubre’s coat, and the 21-year-old forward could be fined.
The NBA is planning to review Wizards forward Kelly Oubre Jr.’s decision to wear a jacket with offensive language to his team’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night.
The NBA has a dress code for players on game nights and has the option to issue fines for violations.
If Oubre is indeed fined, it would be the second time over the last week that the former Kansas Jayhawk drew a fine. Oubre was fined $15,000 last week for “aggressively entering an altercation” during the Bradley Beal-Draymond Green fight last Friday.
