The bigger questions are still to be answered — like can the NBA come back, what will it look like if it does and how close to a guarantee can the league give everyone involved that it will be safe to resume games in any shape or form.
Those will become clearer in time when sites are determined, COVID-19 testing is worked out and the dangers of resuming the season are laid out and understood.
For now, what’s going on around the league is nothing like real basketball. But for athletes starved for the activity they so crave, an hour in a lonely gym with one workout partner feels something like Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
