Curry s epic improvement? NBA implements new rule that you can t hit after shooting

With less than two weeks left before the start of the new regular season, the US media Basketball Forever updated the news that the NBA will implement a new rule in the new season: defensive players cannot hit the opponent's hand before or after the offensive player shoots. This behavior, previously known as "hot stove contact," will now be penalized and awarded a penalty kick.

There is no doubt that Warriors star Stephen Curry will be one of the biggest beneficiaries of this rule change. Curry is recognized as the strongest shooter in NBA history. However, in his career, compared to other top stars, he rarely got free throw opportunities after shooting. Fans once ridiculed that Curry does not have a cylinder. In games, we can often see Curry being violated or beaten by opponents after shooting but not getting free throws. Now, with the change of this rule, Curry is expected to get more free throw opportunities in the new season, which will undoubtedly increase his influence on the game. When defending Curry, opponents will need to control their hands and body movements more carefully.

The Warriors will face the Lakers away from home in the opening game of the new season. The latest news today is that Lakers star LeBron James will miss the opening game.
