The NBA is considering moving games or suspending play due to the coronavirus, according to report

It goes without saying that I have written daily about Covid-19 or the coronavirus. It’s worldwide news, and it’s affecting operations in the NBA.

On Wednesday early morning, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN wrote that the NBA’s Board of Governors will take part in a conference call to discuss game options regarding the spread of the coronavirus. One of the options is to play games in neutral cities or to have certain NBA teams play more games at another team’s arena, provided that that team is in a city without a known outbreak.

There are no NBA cities that have a coronavirus situation like Wuhan, China; Daegu, South Korea or Milan, Italy for now.
