“Black Lives Matter” Message Is Featured On New NBA Courts (VIDEO)
The NBA is branding its season from Walt Disney World a “Whole New Game” which includes new courts that feature the message “Black Lives Matter.”
According to the Associated Press, “There’s no bench. The courtside broadcasters will not be courtside. And the stat crew will be doing their work inside what loosely can be described as an oversized hockey penalty box.”
There are many changes happening to keep the NBA players and staff safe during the pandemic.
Exhibition games, which start today, “will be glorified scrimmages, designed to help the teams, the referees and even the game-night workers figure out how everything works.”
“League officials hope they thought of every way to keep people apart and promote social distancing.”
