Edwards faced the Kings on November 15 last year, and he made an indecent gesture on the court, which cost him a $35,000 fine.
Edwards was fined three times by the league in December, including swearing in a post-game interview ($25,000 fine), swearing at the referee after a game ($75,000), and swearing in a live TV interview after the game on December 27 last year ($100,000).
The 23-year-old is a two-time NBA All-Star player, averaging 25.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists this season.
