NBA Commissioner Adam Silver on the league’s new player participation policy

The NBA is implementing a new player participation policy to start with the 2023-24 season. The goal is to address the spread of load management moves around the league.

Speaking to the media soon after the formal adoption of the policy, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver emphasized this change is driven by a desire to prioritize the fans’ experience and maintain the integrity of the league’s 82-game schedule.

The new policy, developed collaboratively with team owners, management, coaches, the National Basketball Players Association and players, focuses on ensuring healthy stars play and teams do not engage in prolonged player shutdowns.
