what is a flagrant foul in the nba
Flagrant foul In basketball, a flagrant foul is a serious personal foul. A foul is considered flagrant when it involves excessive or violent contact that could injure the fouled player. A flagrant foul may be unintentional or purposeful; the latter type is simultaneously known as an "intentional foul" in the NBA. However, most intentional fouls are not considered "flagrant" and are performed safely as a necessity for time management.
Technical foul Rasheed Wallace holds the record for the most technical fouls received during one season in the NBA. In the 2000â€“01 season, he received 41 technical fouls in 80 regular season and postseason games played. Wallace also holds the all-time mark for most technical fouls by a player in a career with 317, a record previously held by Dennis Rodman.[7][8]
