2715484, The PA has to approve everything. And yes, 14-day quarantine
Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Wed Jun-03-20 01:24 PM
But starting tomorrow a lot of guys could start returning, doing the quarantine and then jumping into team functions (workouts, practice, camp, whatever).

But all this stuff is outside the scope of the CBA so any plans have to be approved by the PA. The NHL is going through this now. Every little detail needs PA approval. It'll be interesting to see how the NBA approaches it. The players pool of money for the players isn't that significant and I imagine that the league won't toy with it much.

Maybe Dula or someone can explain just how much impetus the players have to finish the season (e.g. collect playoff TV money) as it relates to next season. In the NHL, they had a lot of impetus because of the escrow system and other elements of the CBA. I am sure the NBA guys also have some motivation there, but I don't know how much.
