NBA to Release Social-Networking Guidelines
The National Basketball Association is set to release guidelines for use of social-networking sites by players, coaches and team officials, but sources told ESPN.com the restrictions won’t be as strict as those introduced by the National Football League earlier this month.
The main issue addressed by the NBA policy is the banning of tweeting during games, but sources told ESPN.com NBA teams can craft their own policies on social-networking use. ESPN.com also reported that, much in the same way players, coaches and officials can be fined for comments that appear in traditional media, those rules apply to social media, as well.
