NBA Targeting May 8 for Opening Practice Facilities Where Stay-At-Home Orders Have Been Eased

The NBA is targeting May 8 as the earliest date for opening practice facilities in areas where stay-at-home orders have been eased.

If a team can open its doors, the league will allow only four players in a practice facility at one time for voluntary workouts or treatment. No head or assistant coaches can participate in the workouts and group activities like scrimmages or practices are prohibited.

"The purpose of these changes is to allow for safe and controlled environments for players to train in states that allow them to do so," the NBA said in a statement, per Stein.
