Giannis Antetokounmpo pledged $100,000 to his home arena's staff on Friday, two days after the NBA suspended its season because of the coronavirus outbreak.
Antetokounmpo's gesture comes after Cavaliers forward Kevin Love pledged $100,000 to his home arena's hourly employees. Shortly after the NBA suspended play, Marc Cuban announced during an interview with ESPN that he would set up a payment plan for his stadium's hourly workers.
The NBA suspended the season for at least 30 days on Wednesday after Jazz center Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19, which the World Health Organization declared a pandemic earlier this week.
