NBA Players Move To Eliminate Reserve Clause From Contracts
Officials report the NBA Players Association proposed removing the reserve clause to allow free negotiating with any team. Walter Kennedy said the idea was referred to a standing committee for review at a July meeting focusing on officiating and merchandising. Oscar Robertson and Larry Fleisher presented the proposal, urging lawmakers and courts to ease contract restrictions. Kennedy noted Congress trends toward antitrust protections for major sports, with the reserve clause seen as a necessary evil by some. The article also notes a boxing result from San Jose mentioning Alex Benitez defeating Manuel Ochoa.
