NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA has announced anti-flopping rules that will fine repeat offenders.
The NBA league said last Wednesday that flopping will be defined as “any physical act that appears to have been intended to cause the referees to call a foul on another player.”
Players will get a warning the first time, then be fined $5,000 the second time. The fines increase to $30,000 for a fifth offense, if the flopping still goes on, the player will be suspected to sanction and possibly suspension.
