Yesterday, it was announced the NBA has ordered the Philadelphia Sixers to pay $3 million dollars to the New Orleans Pelicans for failing to disclose Jrue Holiday's medical history.
The sources said Holiday played with stress fractures in his lower right leg during his final season with the Sixers. However, the sources said, those injures weren't fully disclosed to the Pelicans.
Many wonder how did the Pelicans staff miss making the diagnosis. Honestly, it could be for any number of reasons, but let's start with the obvious one: by the time the New Orleans doctors had a chance to examine Holiday during his physical exam, his injury had largely healed up.
