The NBA is reviewing the Nets’ decision to field a threadbare roster against the Bucks on Wednesday, The Post has learned. The league is determining whether it rises to the level of a finable offense. In a case of load management that offended many of their fans — and appeared to vex their star player, Mikal Bridges — the Nets opted to sit four players against visiting Milwaukee, then compounded matters by pulling three more early in the 144-122 defeat. Nicolas Claxton, Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith and Cam Johnson all sat out entirely. Then the Nets doubled down, pulling Bridges, Cam Thomas and Royce O’Neale all after the first quarter. -via New York Post / December 31, 2023
