A revolution in the NBA? Adam Silver considering cutting games to 40 minutes

In depth

According to Israel Hayom, journalist Chris Manix said the commissioner is enthusiastic about the shortened games, but according to him there is no feasibility for shortening games in the NBA or reducing the number of games: "The situation is bad, people pay to watch the stars."

According to Walla, the league commissioner supports the option of moving to four 10-minute quarters, against the backdrop of the wave of star injuries at the start of the season. According to Maariv, Manix of Sports Illustrated wrote that Silver supports the idea of shortening games from 48 to 40 minutes, and added: "Something has to change."

According to Ynet and according to Manix of Sports Illustrated, the move could harm bench players.
