Explaining NBA rule changes, In-Season Tournament schedule as the season begins

New York Times  

When the 2023-24 NBA season tips off Tuesday, a few things about the schedule and game itself will look a little different. The league is implementing a couple of rule changes, embracing a new stance on “load management” and running a new In-Season Tournament this year. Flopping fouls According to a league rule change, those beloved, theatrical “flops” will be called non-unsportsmanlike technical fouls during the upcoming season. Relatedly, NBA executive Joe Dumars said earlier this month that teams’ general practice of resting players to prevent future injury and extend careers — commonly known as “load management” — is no longer supported by scientific data held by the league. West Group A: Grizzlies, Suns, Lakers, Jazz, Blazers West Group B: Nuggets, Clippers, Pelicans, Mavericks, Rockets West Group C: Kings, Warriors, Timberwolves, Thunder, Spurs East Group A: 76ers, Cavaliers, Hawks, Pacers, Pistons East Group B: Bucks, Knicks, Heat, Wizards, Hornets East Group C: Celtics, Nets, Raptors, Bulls, Magic Full group schedules GO DEEPER NBA schedule czar dishes on creating the 2023-24 slate 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament group-stage national TV schedule Nov. 3 Knicks at Bucks, 7:30 p.m.
