For some Mavericks, being in the NBA ‘bubble’ means being away from their children

While Walt Disney World is a vacation destination for most of the people that enter the resort’s grounds, it’s become the de facto home for 22 NBA teams for the next several months. One of the hardest things players had to do upon agreeing to play in the NBA’s restart in Orlando, Florida was saying goodbye to their families.

The Dallas Mavericks are a young team, and many players haven’t started families of their own. However, those with children found themselves with the unenviable task of explaining why they were leaving for what could be upwards of two months.
