NBA announces schedule for season resumption

The league and the union announced Friday they have finalized their agreement to continue the suspended season next month at the Disney World campus near Orlando. The joint statement said that “stringent health and safety protocols” have been put into place to help ensure a safe environment in which teams will be isolated in hotels, a necessity with COVID-19 cases having sharply risen in Orlando and Florida in general in recent weeks. The season, which has been on hold since March 11, is slated to resume July 30.
