The NBA's Board of Governors has approved two rule changes for the upcoming 2023-24 season. The first change introduces a second coach's challenge if the first one is successful, giving teams more flexibility. The second change addresses flopping, with offending players' teams receiving a non-unsportsmanlike technical foul and the opposition shooting a free throw.
