Joel Embiid has been fined by the NBA. Apparently his comments following the team’s most recent loss crossed the line.
“Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has been fined $15,000 for public criticism of the officiating, it was announced today by Byron Spruell, President, League Operations.
Embiid made his remarks to the media following the 76ers’ 110-102 loss to the Toronto Raptors in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series on April 23 at Scotiabank Arena.”
Embiid was seen giving a sarcastic round of applause to the officials following the team’s 110-102 Game 4 loss.
