The NBA Forced Joakim Noah To Change The Outfit He Wore To The Game

Injured Bulls center Joakim Noah was escorted off the bench last night during the middle of the game against the Pacers by NBA security.

It’s not that Noah wasn’t behaving himself, he just made the mistake of not following the strict NBA dress code: he wore a sweater. Surprisingly, the NBA is still enforcing a dress code that was implemented back in 2005.

When Noah came in wearing a sweater, NBA officials had him go into the locker-room to change into the mandatory button-down and blazer.

Noah simply laughed it off and changed so as to avoid a ridiculous fine.
