Thought this would be the first time something like this has happened, but it isn't.
NBA/Stern fined the 89-90 Lakers $25k for sitting Magic and Worthy in the final game of season. Riley wasn't too happy about it.

I would have to imagine that the reason Stern has stepped in on this has to do with TV higher ups complaining. They pay a lot of money to broadcast these games and when teams start sitting their superstars ratings go down.
