Damon Stoudamire
Another big fine received by a very talented player, goes to the point guard Damon Stoudamire, who was playing for the Portland Trailblazers in 2003 when he was fined.
The star player was arrested several times for possession of marijuana in the course of the 2003 season, which raised some questions about the way the NBA professional basketball league deals with stuff like this.
The player was fined with $250,000 by the league and his illegal consumption of drugs forced the league to impose other sanctions.
The team was the second forum that gave him a punishment and suspended him and offered to find him professional help.
