NBA suspends the Knicks' Joakim Noah for 20 games
New York Knicks center Joakim Noah has been suspended for 20 games for violating the league's anti-drug program.
Noah tested positive for a banned over-the-counter supplement, which he took unknowingly. Currently recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery, the center will need to prove he is healthy and able to play before the suspension can begin. The Knicks may try to prove he can play somewhere over the final 10 games of the season, so to lessen the hit in the fall.
Noah finishes the 2016-17 season with 5.0 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 2.2 assists while posting a -0.1 nERd rating, ranking 179th among the 478 NBA players.
