Where does all the NBA fine money go?
| Fine money is split evenly between the league and Players Association (NBPA). Each then donates its share to a charity or charities of their choosing. According to Kathy Behrens, who oversees the NBA's outreach efforts, the NBA donates "a couple million dollars a year" to a range of groups, including Unicef, March of Dimes, and Reading Is Fundamental. |
