The National Basketball Association is changing the "Hack-a-Shaq" rules starting in the 2016-2017 season. This will change intentional fouling, late in the game, of poor-free-throw shooters. Shaquille O'neal was a terrible free throw shooter and would often be fouled in late game situations in hopes that the defending team could rebound the missed free throw.
