the 2020-21 season won’t begin earlier than Christmas Day, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Nov. 18 Draft date, 20-21 start date remain fluid.
There should be a vaccine available by then, and it will be interesting to see if the league requires all the players, coaches, referees, etc. to take it. Doing that will eliminate the need for a bubble.
Of course, fans will be a different story. But resumption of regular practice and play without a bubble depends on a vaccine, and any vaccine will initially only be available to high-risk people (people like nurses and the elderly), and the NBA won't try to get special permission to get the vaccine early.
At this point, there are 4 different vaccines that are likely to be approved for emergency use by then. It's just a question of when their availability is extended from high-risk people to the general public.
