Measures to combat the … scourge of mass rest stars from the teams took the NBA, in order to keep the product commercial and interesting. THE owners association passed stricter rules and now provides significant penalties for them stars who are unjustifiably left out of matches, especially for those shown on a national network, while there is provision for the simultaneous absence of All Star players from games during the season. Now teams will not be able to “park” their stars with the same comfort, even when there are no goals in the season.
Anyone who has played in the All Star Game or been selected to the best teams in the league in the last three years is recognized as a star player. The NBA will establish a system of punishments, which will provide fine $100,000 on the first offense, $250,000 on the second and $1 million for each additional offense.
According to NBA regulations, teams should manage their roster in such a way that no more than one star is absent from the same game. At the same time, they should make sure that their stars are available for the games that are shown on the national network or for the tournaments that will be held during the regular season from this year. Also, they should make sure that if a star is going to miss a game, it’s better to miss a home game than an away game. Finally, teams should avoid putting star players out of the rotation or having them in a reduced role affecting games, and players should be present for spectators to see even if they are rested.
