Guards J.J. Barea of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Donald Sloan of the Cleveland Cavaliers are the first players who have been identified as floppers under the NBA’s new anti-flopping rule.
Both offending plays occurred in the fourth quarters of games last Friday. Check it out…
Players found to have egregiously attempted to fool the referee are punished. A first offense calls for a warning. The second offense comes with a $5,000 fine, followed by $10,000 for a third, $15,000 for a fourth and $30,000 for a fifth. Additional flops after that could lead to a suspension.
