NBA Fines James Harden $100,000 for Public Criticism of General Manager

Frustrated by his non-transfer from the Sixers, James Harden recently took out the sulphur by calling his general manager Daryl Morey a “liar”. A statement that the NBA – which is currently investigating this matter – did not like at all. The proof in numbers.

100 000 dollars.

This is the amount of the fine imposed by the League on James Harden after his public statement against Daryl Morey, made in the middle of a tour in China. The news was swung by Adrian Wojnarowski d’ESPN. The NBA did not appreciate the manner and terms used by the Bearded Man, who not only called Morey a “liar” but also said he would “never play again” in a franchise run by the president of operations. Sixers basketball.

“James Harden has been fined $100,000 for his public remarks indicating that he will not carry out the responsibilities stipulated in his contract unless he is transferred to another team.”

– The official statement from the NBA

For the league’s purposes on the fine, Harden’s comments that he would never be part of an organization that included Morey played a bigger part in the fine, sources said. It touched on the league’s rules concerning public trade demands. https://t.co/AZxe6kKpNv

A $100,000 fine is simply the maximum amount the NBA can impose on a player. Suffice to say that the summer of James Harden does not get better.

Not getting the XXL contract extension he is looking for, nor the hoped-for transfer from the Sixers after activating his player option during the offseason, Harden now sees the NBA attacking his wallet with this very big fine. We know that Ramesse can be very creative to get what he wants, but this is turning against him quite brutally.

Maybe in the future, the Bearded Man will think twice about it before going up to the clash in a public square…
