For those who like maps, here is a map of the NBA's proposed Disney set-up |
NBA has obtained the six-phase health/safety manual summary for resumed 2019-20 season:
NBA players have been notified that any player who chooses not to play in resumed 2019-20 season must notify his team by June 24, Compensation would be reduced by 1/92.6 for each game missed. Two categories of non-participating NBA players who will not have their salary reduced: “Protected Players” and “Excused Players,” whom are believed to be at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19 from team/experts. June 25 deadline for excused absence.
NBA players have been informed that anyone who leaves the Orlando campus (without prior approval) will be subject to: - 10-14 day self-quarantine - Reduction in compensation for games missed - Enhanced testing (deep nasal swab)

The NBA will have two rows on the bench:
- First row: players and coaches; no mask required, but recommended that coaches wear masks
- Second row: other players and coaches; must wear masks at all times (unless active player)
- NBA Refs will not be required to wear masks, sources say.
Per NBA health and safety protocols for return: All players, team staff and guests will be required to certify in writing that they will adhere to all pre-arrival rules and league rules while on campus. Failure to comply with protocols subjects a player to potential discipline such as warning, fine, suspension, and/or removal from the campus.
