Here’s more from around the NBA:

• The vaccination rate for NBA players has risen to 95%, writes Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The figure includes players that have received one dose, sources tell Wojnarowski, and thus are not yet considered fully vaccinated.
• The NBA Board of Governors approved a change to automatic late-game out-of-bounds reviews, the league tweets. The change is an effort to improve the flow of end of games, which had become onerous and disruptive. We previously touched on this subject and what the rule change entails.
• Shams Charania of The Athletic interviewed former Baylor Bears star Isaiah Austin, a projected first round pick of the 2014 draft, who was ruled ineligible to compete as a player after being diagnosed with Marfan syndrome.
