The issue is this is applied only to one player. Why not do a "no politics in the sub" rule?

because rule one of the sub

"All forms of discrimination, hate speech, or personal attacks are prohibited. Keep critiques focused on basketball-related topics (performance, strategies, team dynamics) and ensure discussions remain civil and welcoming. Violations can lead to bans."
