We’re without live basketball for quite some time, as the coronavirus pandemic has put the NBA on indefinite hold. Naturally, the league is trying to come up with ways to keep providing basketball-related entertainment and content for the fans.

And now there’s talks of a remote H-O-R-S-E competition, as first reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
