I have read that NBA officials have target weights they have to maintain. Perhaps things work differently if you are an employee of the league with a collective bargaining agreement than if you're an independent contractor, but I would think you'd have a hard time making any case if you're an independent contractor who was not given a contract because the group or person giving the contract judged you unfit for the job.
