The Cleveland Cavaliers were scheduled to play the best player in their history in LeBron James on March 26, but with the NBA being suspended due to precautions being exercised by the league in regards to the novel coronavirus pandemic and social distancing being applied around the country, the Cavs won’t be playing the Lakers on Thursday.
At this point, it’s uncertain if the 2019-20 NBA season will eventually resume, given the severity of COVID-19, but rest assured, the owners and players do want to try to resume the current season at some point.
