NBA to adjust stat rule: end-of-period heaves won’t count against players

NBA Hard Cap

Starting in the 2025-26 season, missed end-of-period heaves will be logged as team misses

Starting in the 2025-26 season, missed end-of-period heaves will be logged as team misses rather than individual ones, according to ESPN.

The change is meant to encourage more long-range attempts, as players won’t see their shooting percentages drop. It was tested during Summer League in July.

Supported by the Competition Committee, the adjustment is expected to increase half-court and long-distance shots, previously avoided by players concerned with efficiency stats.
