Nets forward Kevin Durant has been fined $15,000 by the NBA for “using profane language” in a postgame press conference earlier this week, the league announced Friday.

Durant’s comments came following the Nets’ loss Monday night at Portland, when he said “I’m not making no excuses about no flights or our schedule. Everybody’s schedule is f–ked up.”

The 11-time All-Star also failed to comply with NBA security in an interview as part of the review process, according to the league’s release.

Knicks forward Julius Randle was fined $25,000 last week for multiple f-bombs, including explaining that a thumbs-down gesture was meant to say “shut the f–k up” to fans at Madison Square Garden. The NBA issued a memo six weeks ago warning players to not curse during interviews.

Durant also used a milder curse word in the same postgame interview in Portland when asked about the schedule that had the Nets playing back-to-back games on both coasts due to a COVID-19 postponement.

“Who cares? It’s a part of the game. It’s a part of who we are. We’ve been in the league. … They throw s–t at you, you’ve gotta figure out how to work around it,” Durant said. “So who cares? That’s what championship teams go through: a little adversity.”

Durant, the NBA’s leading scorer, was rested and didn’t play in the Nets’ blowout loss to the Thunder on Thursday night at Barclays Center.

Nic Claxton (hamstring) has been upgraded to questionable for game Saturday against the Pelicans, but LaMarcus Aldridge (foot) will miss a fourth straight game.

After resting Durant and Patty Mills on Thursday, Nets coach Steve Nash said he doesn’t expect anyone — including James Harden — to rest Saturday.

“I think everyone’s more or less caught up, as much as you can be in this league,” Nash said. “Most guys that play a lot are never going to totally catch up. I know James missed a game Monday [with a sore knee], and Kevin and Patty missed [the game Thursday]. I expect everyone more or less, those guys that [were out] for rest, to play Saturday.”
