"NBA Summer League Becomes Testing Ground for Flopping Penalty"
The NBA will test two proposed rule changes, an in-game flopping penalty and a second coach's challenge, during all summer league games. The flopping penalty would result in a non-unsportsmanlike technical foul, one free throw, and possession for the opposing team. The coach's challenge proposal would allow a team to retain its challenge if the first attempt is successful. The NBA's board of governors will vote on these rule changes on July 11.
