Sources: NBA Expected to Pass Rule Changes for 2018-19 Season

The NBA’s board of governors are expected to pass rule changes for the 2018-19 season that include resetting the shot clock after an offensive rebound to 14 seconds from 24, simplifying the clear-path foul rule and expanding the definition of the “hostile act” to more easily trigger instant replay, league sources told ESPN.

The NBA sent a memo to the league’s general managers and coaches on Thursday to outline the unanimous recommendations of the league’s competition committee to the board of governors.

The board of governors will vote on the three rules changes in a Sept. 20-21 meeting and need a two-thirds majority to pass the legislation.
