6 d. ago ‘The stakes are quite large’: US supreme court case could gut Voting Rights Act

Yet as the league celebrates a second straight year of explosive growth, an old and thorny problem has risen to the surface: officiating.Complaints about referees have always been louder and more persistent in professional basketball relative to other sports due to the subjectivity of calls and sheer number of decisions.
