With the NBA season suspended indefinitely, what happens now? At least through Monday, March 16, we have some idea.
The league has handed down four stipulations to all 30 teams as the league, and others, remain in a holding pattern during the coronavirus pandemic. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the four rules are as follows:
– All players must remain in market of team
– Players remain home as long as possible
– NO group workouts, practices
– Team physicians/trainers speak to each player once a day
Currently only two players are known to have contracted the virus: Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell of the Utah Jazz. It remains unclear at this time if the league will resume its season at a later date, or if the season will indeed be canceled. What happens beyond Monday also remains to be seen.
