NBA gives Joel Embiid tech for waving towel from bench, admits to missing game-altering travel

The NBA is focusing on the important things, as always.

Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid officially has more technical fouls than games played after the NBA assessed him with a postgame tech for his action during the Sixers’ overtime win over the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. It was announced in the last two minute report for the contest, posted Monday.

That action? Waving a towel from the bench while Indiana’s Andrew Nembhard attempted free throws. Embiid was watching from the sideline as he continues progressing through injury management toward his season debut.
