NBA Announces Rule Change to Expand Replay on Out of Bounds Calls for 2024-25 Season
The NBA announced Tuesday that it is expanding instant replay rules for the 2024-25 season as they relate to out-of-bounds calls, according to ESPN's Tim…
Per Bontemps, the new rules will allow for officials to review whether a foul should have been called on an out-of-bounds play. That means that even if a replay shows the ball going off a certain team's player and out of bounds, the other team won't gain possession if it is determined they committed a foul on the play.
Bontemps added that the rule changed was approved by the NBA Board of Governors on Tuesday, and commissioner Adam Silver will further explain the changes later in the day following the meetings.

1In American Football they use this a lot.
