Dec. 28 (UPI) -- Philadelphia 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey was fined $50,000 for violating the NBA's anti-tampering rule, the league announced Monday.
The NBA said the fine was in response to Morey's Dec. 20 tweet about Houston Rockets star guard James Harden. The post on social media, which was deleted shortly later, celebrated the one-year anniversary of Harden breaking the Rockets' franchise assists record.
