NBA takes first step towards eliminating the take foul

It looks like the NBA might finally be ready to fix one of the worst rules — or lack of rules — in the league. According to a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, the NBA Competition Committee met on Tuesday to discuss take fouls, and encourage the league to enact a rule that would seek to eliminate such fouls.
