The Brooklyn Nets join a slew of NBA teams and players who are pledging to pay stadium staff while the league’s season is suspended. The team released a statement on Saturday, confirming that they would be committing to the Barclays Center employees.
“We commit to provide relief to hourly employees for the paychecks they would have earned if Brooklyn Nets regular season games and non-Nets events as originally scheduled. The plan will cover the period from now until the end of May unless the events are rescheduled before that,” part of the statement read.
