While the 2019-20 NBA season remains on hiatus due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the league continues to look for ways to safely bring back basketball.
The Los Angeles Lakers, who were perhaps favorites to win the 2020 NBA Finals after beating the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers consecutively, could have the most to lose by the remainder of the season getting canceled.
The Lakers may have been slight favorites, but the Bucks and Clippers definitely wouldn’t see it that way. This especially is true for the Clippers, who had beaten the Lakers twice already this season and were hoping to meet with them in the Western Conference Finals.
