Adam Silver Proposes Major Change in NBA Format, Reveals Why It May Not be Accepted

NBA Commissioner, Adam Silver, has proposed that the most popular basketball league in the world starts playing 10-minute quarters rather than the 12 minutes teams currently play per quarter.

Silver made the suggestion during his guest appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, saying 40-minute games instead of 48 minutes is better because of evolving television audience along with the need to be in alignment with international rules.

“I’m a fan of four 10-minute quarters. I’m not sure that many others are,” Silver said. “It’s such a dramatic change to the game. I think something like that would have to be talked more about over time.”

The NBA Commissioner added that it is not a regulation which the league is considering actively, noting that there will be a need to further study the situation before it can be implemented.
