Terrence Ross' hot temper is going to cost him.

The Magic guard has been fined $25,000 for tossing the game ball into the stands at the end of his team's 122-120 overtime loss to the Suns on Wednesday.

The incident occurred after Evan Fournier missed a three-point shot for the win. Ross grabbed the ball and threw it out of frustration as Orlando suffered its fourth straight loss.

Ross, 27, is averaging a career-best 13.4 points per game in his second full season with the Magic. He initially was selected No. 8 overall by the Raptors in 2012 before being traded from Toronto to Orlando in 2017.

He will face his former team Friday when the Magic (14-19) host the Raptors (26-10) at 7 p.m. ET.
