New York Knicks: Details of Joakim Noah’s Suspension Revealed

It came out of nowhere late on Friday night, or early Saturday morning depending on how you look at it. Another black eye on the Phil Jackson regime. Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical reported New York Knicks center Joakim Noah was suspended 20 games for violating the NBA’s anti-drug policy.

We thought the 2016-17 season couldn’t get any more embarrassing and then Woj dropped a weekend bomb on us. Since the initial report, more details have emerged about the former Defensive Player of the Year’s punishment.

According to Marc Berman of The New York Post, Noah tested positive for a testosterone booster called Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator LGD-4033.
