Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has been retroactively assessed a Flagrant 1 foul for kicking Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham, the NBA announced Friday. The league upgraded the foul after a postgame review of the incident, which occurred during a recent matchup between the two teams. Embiid was not ejected during the game, but the Flagrant 1 classification carries a penalty point and potential further discipline if he accumulates more points during the season.
