NBA to allow teams in certain markets to open facilities on limitied basis

On Saturday Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the NBA would be allowing teams in markets where shelter-in-place orders have been loosened to open up facilities to players on an individual basis.

Sources: Teams will be allowed to make facilities open to players on a voluntary basis for individual work, but larger group workouts will still be prohibited. In NBA markets that aren't loosening restrictions, league plans to work w/ teams on other arrangements for players. https://t.co/yZSKsXedW1

Woj was quick to add that the fact that this news has come out does not hint at the NBA resuming the season anytime soon.

NBA's decision on opening practice facilities to players in markets where governments may be loosening stay-at-home orders doesn't mean a resumption of season is imminent. The NBA is still unsure on if/when it can play again. But getting players safely into gyms was a priority.

As Georgia moves toward opening certain businesses -- including gymasiums -- some players were asking their teams if they should consider traveling there to find a way to play. Organizations wants players in safe/clean team environments, not a fitness center in suburban Atlanta.

Player and fan safety is paramount, so the league is not interested in trying to resume the league having players play in one state or any other alternative methods at this time.
