While finishing the season in a single location has been floated, the NBA will not require players to leave their families to do so.
The idea to finish the season in a bubble of sorts is one that the NBA has been contemplating in recent weeks amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and has reportedly been looking at holding games in one location in Las Vegas or at Walt Disney World.
“The NBA is not interested right now in a bubble where [players, coaches and staff] could not bring their families in,” Windhorst said on ESPN on Saturday, citing league sources. He also addressed testing, something that would need to be readily available for everyone involved in the season being resumed. The league reportedly would need anywhere from 15,000 to 100,000 tests.
There were more than 1.1 million confirmed cases of the coronavirus in the United States as of Saturday night, according to The New York Times, and more than 66,000 deaths attributed to the virus. MGM reportedly pitched the league a plan to finish the season at its resorts in Las Vegas this week. It said that it could build 24 courts at its convention centers for practices and games with the central hub at Mandalay Bay, while having the connecting casinos be where players, coaches, staff and families stay for the duration.
