Utah Jazz and Indiana Pacers face NBA fines for roster management violations, with Jazz penalized $500,000 and Pacers $100,000. The league cited bench decisions in recent games that prioritized draft positioning over competitiveness.

Jazz rested Lauri Markkanen and Jaren Jackson Jr. in fourth quarters against Orlando and Miami despite their ability to play, while Pacers starters including Pascal Siakam were held out of a Feb. 3 matchup against Utah. Commissioner Adam Silver called the actions a threat to league integrity, stating, "Overt behavior like this undermines the foundation of NBA competition."
