To play devil's advocate, the league has to set some kind of consistent precedent here that prevents teams from fudging the injury reports to delay games when the inevitable quarantine issues come up. Mike Scott's knee bruise from December probably isn't really keeping him from playing. He just sucks. And it's simply on Philly's word that both Simmons and Embiid were fine two nights ago with no injuries but now can't play today. Ben Simmons wasn't even on the injury report at all before being suddenly ruled out at the last minute as Philly tried to get the game pushed back. I know it sucks for Philly fans, but there are enough question marks here that I don't automatically assume the NBA is in the wrong.
