NCAA approves multiple changes to basketball rules.
The NCAA has made changes to the penalty for delay-of-game violations in women's basketball and added a new rule on flopping. Players will no longer receive a technical foul for certain delay-of-game violations, and a warning will be issued for the first offense of flopping. The restricted-area arc has also been reduced, and players can wear any number from 0 to 99. Schools will no longer need to submit a waiver for players to wear religious headwear.
