I think two critical items were referenced:

A legal screen was redefined to require that the inside of the screener’s feet be no wider than his shoulders.

The cylinder rule was adjusted to allow more freedom of movement for the offense. If a defensive player straddles an offensive player’s leg in a way that prohibits him from making a normal basketball move — which now includes pivoting — contact that creates a common foul will be called on the defensive player.

• The Southeastern Conference received approval for its request to use a separate individual or individuals to collaborate with the on-court officials on all monitor reviews during its league games during the 2017-18 season. This collaboration will take place from a central location that is not at the game site.

I'm excited about this and hope to see it spread, especially come tourney time.

Only problem could be when there are 6 conference games going at a time. Could cause delays.
