I hope the T was for something "said" when being asked to remove the jewelry or, at least for "sneaking it back in". We take enough heat for being the fashion police, and most fans etc... do not understand we are only enforcing equipment rules out of concern for safety.

Never have I seen a T given for jewelry, the worst thing I do to a player found to be wearing jewelry after tip-off is make them remove it during a dead ball.

I have been known to make coach take a player out for a tick to remove it though. "Coach, player #15 is out of uniform/improperly equipped, you will need to sub until it is corrected." Did this just last weekend, told a player during pregame to make sure he removed a necklace, he said he would. During the third quarter, I see it still on and told coach to sub him out.
