Players who didn't play for champion teams
Say a player is in the active roster for a team, suited up every game but never played a single game for some reason (most likely coach's decision), then that team won the title. That player got included in the awarding ceremony and got his own ring or something. My question is, do we add that achievement to that player's infobox highlights? I cannot find a case in the NBA where a player didn't play any game, but is in the active roster, both in the regular season and playoff for a champion team.

- If a player did not play a game for a team, his supposed team won't even be listed in the infobox; so to answer your question, no. Howard the Duck (talk) 17:40, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
- Unless he was injured for the season. Joel Embiid is listed as a player for the 76ers from 2014 despite not playing any games during the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons. Alvaldi (talk) 18:15, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
- Apparently this was discussed before. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Basketball Association/Archive 34#Playing tenures, with the Embiid example. Howard the Duck (talk) 20:09, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

- See WP:NBARING. WP:NBA only lists if player was on playoff roster, regardless if they played or not. —Bagumba (talk) 20:06, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
why is the answer to this important if it has never occurred before? Rikster2 (talk) 20:55, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
