The NBA released tentative health and safety protocols to its teams Tuesday, detailing how unvaccinated players will be tested far more often than their vaccinated colleagues and face a slew of other restrictions.
NBPA Executive Director Michele Roberts and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver released the following joint statement today:
The NBA and the National Basketball Players Association announced today that they have reached agreement on the method for reducing player compensation in the event of a permanent cancellation of 2019-20 regular season or playoff games due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through this agreement, and in order to provide players with a more gradual salary reduction schedule, partial reductions of 25% will begin with the players’ twice-a-month payment due on May 15.
Brown will be responsible for providing strategic leadership, revenue management and generation opportunities for the organization.
The National Basketball Players Association Foundation and the LA84 Foundation announced today that they are issuing a request for proposals to refurbish local basketball courts in underserved communities in Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties.
