Last week, the NHL and NBA — along with nearly every other sports league in north America — suspended their seasons in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a result, the sports world is at an unprecedented standstill.
Thanks to a couple of positive tests by NBA players, the leagues were forced to act quickly in order to limit the exposure of their teams, employees and fans. Games were cancelled immediately and the future of the seasons were put into question. Hopefully the precautions taken lead to good news, but as of now, we have no idea whether or not the NBA and NHL will be back before the fall.
