The NBA has fined the Philadelphia 76ers $ 100,000 for violating the league's injury reporting rules on Sunday against the Atlanta Hawks. They listed Joel Embiid as being “out” for the game, though he ended up playing. Once a player is listed on the report as being out of a game, the team is expected to follow through on that claim per league rules. The league also considers a team's history of similar violations when determining punishment for such a policy breach.

Embiid was initially listed as out for Sunday's game against Atlanta, then upgraded to questionable before trotting onto the court minutes later, scoring 18 points in 30 minutes of the overtime loss. Embiid was returning from a knee injury that had kept him out of the previous nine games.

Philadelphia has a rich history of inaccurately listing injury violations, especially involving Embiid.
