The Brooklyn Nets are being fined $100,000 for violating the NBA’s player participation policy in their Dec. 27 game against the Milwaukee Bucks, per Shams Charania.
The league’s investigation into the Nets’ actions determined that four Nets rotation players, who did not play against the Bucks, in fact could have “under the medical standard in the Player Participation Policy.”
In the 144–122 loss to the Bucks, which was the second game of a back-to-back, Cameron Johnson, Nic Claxton, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Spencer Dinwiddie were all held out; Brooklyn also gave a few other starters minimal playing time.
