Shelvin Mack received a flop warning, the NBA announced Monday.

The guard was cited for a play early in Saturday’s victory over the Bucks in Milwaukee. With 6:15 remaining in the first quarter, and the Bucks leading 11-10, Mack fell backward in the paint after contacting Brandon Knight.

Mack received a warning for his first violation of the anti-flopping rule. He will receive a $5,000 fine for a second infraction.
