NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has stated that the league is determined to crack down on tanking, stating that the owners of the league are behind him and will make a significant change in incentives for next season. Silver did not specify how this change would be implemented. This comes amidst criticism of the 65-game rule, which may result in player Cade Cunningham falling short of the threshold to qualify for postseason awards. Silver supports the rule, stating it is doing its job and is not yet clear if it is working. He also mentioned that if Cunningham falls short of 65 games, another player will be All-NBA.
