LAS VEGAS -- The NBA's board of governors approved two rule changes that will go into effect next season -- a second coach's challenge if the first one is successful and an in-game flopping penalty -- at its annual meeting during the NBA 2K24 Summer League on Tuesday.
Both rule changes had been unanimously recommended to the board of governors by the league's competition committee -- a group made up of players, union representatives, coaches, governors, executives and referees -- to be implemented next season.
Coaches having access to a second challenge is something that teams -- and coaches, in particular -- have been pushing for years.
