The Charlotte Hornets have no immediate plans to open their training facility, as the NBA begins allowing players to return to practice gyms and weight rooms.
“At this time, our practice facility and our offices will remain closed as we continue to monitor the current situation,” the Hornets said in a prepared statement Friday. “Moving forward, we will continue to evaluate this on a week-by-week basis.”
The NBA has told teams they have the option to reopen training facilities once individual states’ stay-at-home orders allow it. Friday evening, N.C. Governor Roy Cooper began a three-step phase-out of his stay-at-home order.
