It used to be they could "sit out" and get fined, but it was up to the team to enforce the fine. It was widely known that teams would excuse this fine once the player returned. The last CBA they took the ability to excuse the fine for sitting out . So players started showing up, but not practicing; as there's no current rule in place that states they must participate in drills.
This way players like Ja'Marr with 2 years remaining on their contracts who don't need to practice can just walk around while everyone else out their sweating can bask in his awesomeness
