Sources: NBA commissioner Adam Silver says 'there will be a series of bad options' regarding continuation of season

NBA commissioner Adam Silver said Friday that the focus is on restarting the season but that “there will be a series of bad options” in deciding how that will be done, sources told Yahoo Sports.

Silver had a conference call Friday with National Basketball Players Association executive director Michele Roberts, NBPA president Chris Paul and players to discuss the league’s ongoing strategy to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.

Silver doesn’t have to make a decision on whether to resume the season until some point in June, sources said, but the commissioner said there would likely be no fans present for games and that many cities have contacted him about hosting the resumed season.
