Shams wrote in a follow up: “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.” Well, no shit! Of course $100k is nothing. It’s like you and I being fined $5. Just wake us up when Joel is out there on the court.
