Hawks get fined .. .
From wire Service Reports
SAN FRANCISCO - The stiffest penalty ever levied by the
National Basketball Association, $400,000, was imposed on the At-
lanta Hawks yesterday for their illegal signing three years ago
of American Basketball Association star Julius Erving.
"We're going to review it. I brought my attorneys with me.
We're disappointed," Hawks President John Wilcox said.
The NBA Board of Governors' vote was "relatively close, I
believe one vote determined it," Wilcox said.
The Hawks were ordered to pay a fine of $250,000 to the
league and $150,000 to the Milwaukee Bucks, who drafted Erving
in 1972 when the talented forward had just completed his rookie
year in the ABA. The Bucks also will get Atlanta's two second-
round draft picks next year, and NBA right to Erving still be-
long to Milwaukee, should he ever become available.
Asked if Atlanta would take any legal action to fight the
NBA's decision, Wilcox replied, "We haven't made any decision."
The decision may be up to new owners who made an agree-
ment recently to buy majority interest in the Hawks. The NBA
Board of governors is expected to approve the sale soon at an-
other meeting.
... Knicks lose McGinnis
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Larry O'Brien, National Basketball
Association commissioner, ruled yesterday that George McGinnis
may not play for the New York Knicks and ordered the team to
forfeit its 1976 first-round draft pick.
"I have directed New York not to let McGinnis play with the
team or put on a New York uniform for any purpose," O'Brien
announced at the NBA's Board of Governors meeting here.
The NBA rights to McGinnis, the American Basketball Asso-
ciation's scoring champion with the Indiana Pacers last season,
belong to the Philadelphia 76ers who drafted him, but the Knicks
signed McGinnis to a contract last Friday.
Unlike the Atlanta case with Julius Erving, O'Brien had the
authority to make a decision and the matter will not go before the
league board.
