    Shams:

    Game changer: The league's new collective bargaining agreement will give players the ability to invest in NBA and WNBA teams, as well as promote and/or invest in sports betting and cannabis companies.

    Sources: Additional salary-related changes in new CBA:
    - 7.5 percent increase to the mid-level exception
    - 30 percent increase to the room exception

    The NBA and NBPA have locked in salary cap smoothing of up to 10 percent increase through this new CBA, avoiding the cap spike that came with previous TV deal that shook up free agency. The league will sign a new media rights deal that starts in 2025.


    @TimBontemps: In the new CBA, the luxury tax brackets will increase at the same rate as the cap does, sources told @BobbyMarks42 and me. Since the current luxury tax system was implemented in the 2011 CBA, the brackets had been fixed $5 million increments. Now they'll grow as the cap does.

    Yikes. Can you own part of a team you don’t play for? Holy conflict of interest, Batman. Has some real MLS vibes

    One of my favorite times of the year is free agency and trading deadline. It appears that the rules will make it harder to make deal thus making these times less exciting. I'm pretty disappointed in that. It's already hard enough to match salaries in current CBA, now it's going to be even tougher.

    I still fail to see why players will care about this midseason tournament, or why this was needed in the 1st place

    I’ll keep an open mind for now tho because I was hating on the play-in when it was first announced, but I think it’s been great and a rare W for Adam Silver…maybe this midseason tourney will end up being the same

    What's the point of the mid-season playoff again?

    To get the middle of the regular season to mean something to players/fans.
