New for the first Orlando games

While the first exhibition matches will soon take place, they will have the right to a small novelty. Who says particular framework says slight change of rule.

More than ever, the NBA is approaching its return. On July 30, the regular season will end with 8 express games for each team. A way to define the last franchises that can access the postseason. But before that, exhibition matches will be held to put the players in leg.

However, the league has decided to introduce some new features for these meetings. Not a major change, but it’s a change you should know about.

The 10 minutes per quarter are scheduled only for exhibition matches.

Yes, you understand, we should spend 12 to 10 minutes per quarter during these first meetings for the recovery. The reason is obvious: to spare the players before seriously resuming the floor. It’s better after several months of suspension.

But these games are not seen as pre-season for the teams. Some will compete to warm up, but will meet a few days later to fight a place in the playoffs. So don’t overdo it during these exhibition meetings.

A special context for all teams, not to mention the fact that fans will not be present on site. So it promises to be very special for some players.

Shortened quarters: the NBA is sparing its players for the recovery. It’s always that for them.
