NBA Commissioner, Adam Silver, addresses the rule changes that pertain to "Hack a Shaq"
— NBA TV (@NBATV)
a rule change meant to limit the number of intentional fouls a team can commit.
On Tuesday, the Board of Governors voted to adjust the current rule which states that if an intentional foul is committed in the last two minutes of a game, the fouled team is awarded one free throw and possession of the ball. With the rule change, the final two-minute rule will apply to the final two minutes of every quarter.
The league also says that as a safety precaution, if a player jumps on another player’s back, the player who jumped will automatically receive a flagrant foul.
