LeBron James Says NBA Executives, Agents Want to Finish Season 'as Soon as It's Safe'

The sports world continues to hang in limbo during the coronavirus pandemic, but LeBron James says the NBA is ready to continue the season whenever it's safe to do so.

Earlier on Thursday, CNBC reported that some NBA executives and agents want to cancel the rest of the 2019-20 season due to the uncertainty of the pandemic. James refuted the report on Twitter, calling it "absolutely not true."

"Saw some reports about execs and agents wanting to cancel season??? That's absolutely not true. Nobody I know saying anything like that. As soon as it's safe we would like to finish our season.
