"I just got off a team presidents' call before I jumped on with you guys, and every intention is to return to play and to try to create the best environment we can for the league and for the fans," Buford said."We're all on board for that." "We're having those discussions with the league, and most of those discussions will be league-wide determinations on how we present our games at the point and time when we do present our games," Buford said.
The NBA is examining several return scenarios, but whether or not the regular season is completed before playoffs begin remains uncertain. "Around the country and around the world, people are missing sports and we're missing playing. I think that's the problem we're trying to solve."Buford said team fitness trainers have worked with players on fitness workouts over iPads from each person's garages, with some players doing injury rehabilitation at home while guided from afar by trainers.
