Joel Embiid (Philadelphia 76ers)
November 2025
The league fined Embiid $50,000 for a lewd gesture during the Celtics game. Executive VP James Jones issued the penalty under conduct standards. Philadelphia, managing Embiid’s minutes, must avoid further disciplinary noise amid an unbeaten start built on Tyrese Maxey’s usage, rim protection by Adem Bona, and late-game execution.
