NBA Approves New Anti-Tanking Rules
The NBA Board of Governors has approved a new anti-tanking policy on Thursday. The new rules were passed with a 29-1 vote, with the Memphis Grizzlies being the lone vote against it. These new rules are a direct response to the obvious tanking that happened during the 2025-2026 season. Teams such as the Utah Jazz, Indiana Pacers, and Grizzlies were all seen making moves that gave them a significantly lower chance at winning games. The new rules will expand the lottery to 16 teams, while flattening the odds of the bottom-3 teams in the league. In theory, these new rules will lower the tanking rate, with the worst teams not having the best odds to the top draft spots anymore.
