Wolves guard Kevin Martin has been fined $15,000 for making an obscene gesture during the Wolves' one-point loss to the Bulls Saturday at Target Center.

The gesture came with 1:37 left in the game, shortly after Martin had made a three-point shot to give the Wolves a two-point lead, which prompted a Chicago time out.

The announcement was made today by Rod Thorn, the NBA's president of basketball operations.
