The NBA’s ‘Heaves’ Rule: Game-Changer or Just Another Myth?
There were players before who either would take a heave or would not take a heave, and everyone knew which version he was when he put his head down at night. Players entering the NBA this season live in a world where they never had to worry about whether they were a heaving coward or not. They can just let it fly.

And let it fly they have. Through the season’s first 222 games, players have attempted 212 heaves, an increase of 83% from last year’s total of 116 at the same point, according to data obtained from the NBA.
