HGH testing in the works for the NBA

What HGH tests mean for NBA drug cheats

Sources say the NBA is due to start testing players for human growth hormone (HGH), which represents several important firsts in the league's anti-doping, including:

• The first time players will have their blood tested.
• The first time the NBA's lab in Montreal will test anybody for HGH.
• An acknowledgement, of sorts, that the NBA's testing program needs to evolve.

This closes one of the NBA's testing "gaps" that has long bothered everyone from the head of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) to the U.S. Congress.
