The NBA fined the Philadelphia 76ers a sum of $100,000 for public statements made about Joel Embiid’s health status. Embiid had not been playing for the Sixers.

The list of defaulters included president of basketball operations Daryl Morey and head coach Nick Nurse, who made comments that were inconsistent with Embiid’s health and violated NBA rules, including the league’s Player Participation Policy.

An investigation by the NBA also confirmed that Embiid has been absent for Sixers regular season fixtures this campaign due to a left knee injury. Therefore, the matches he missed did not violate the Player Participation Policy.

Sources said the NBA’s investigation showed that the Sixers did not violate player participation policy with Embiid’s missed games, but in fact with the public comments that did not properly reflect his health issues with his knee. https://t.co/8HrLPpCVfv
