NBA planning to eliminate two-way contract restrictions for rest of season

It looks like the Golden State Warriors finally found a solution to their Juan Toscano-Anderson problem, and they didn’t even have to do anything. According to a report from The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the NBA is planning to lift restrictions for two-way contracts for the remainder of the season, pending approval from the board.

Sources: The NBA and NBPA are planning to eliminate the 50-game limit for two-way contract players this season and to allow two-way players to be eligible for the playoffs, pending Board approval.

Removing the restrictions means that players on two-way contracts (Toscano-Anderson and Nico Mannion for the Warriors) would no longer be limited to 50 games and, more importantly, would be eligible to join the postseason roster.
