The 2020 NBA Draft is scheduled to take place June 25 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. According to a new report from ESPN, several NBA teams are calling for the draft to be pushed back to at least August 1 in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
From Adrian Wojnarowski and Jonathan Givony:
Multiple top team executives expressed to ESPN their belief that shifting the draft date would give organizations more time to salvage the essential elements of the pre-draft process, possibly allowing for in-person workouts, interviews and medical evaluations of prospects that current social distancing and shelter-in-place guidelines make impossible.
