I Love Basketball: How will the coronavirus shutdown affect the NBA moving forward?

Sabreena and Anthony start by recapping the news of the week, including the opening of practice facilities and the Lakers -- a franchise valued at $4.4 billion -- applying for a small business loan, and they try to make sense of the path the league is taking towards potentially resuming operations for the 2019-20 season. Then, they focus on the larger question of how the NBA will be fundamentally altered moving forward due to the shutdown. Sabreena and Anthony are interested in how the pandemic will force the league to evaluate its practices regarding media availability, if stadiums will ever be as full as they were before the stoppage, and how the NBA can update its broadcast strategy without fans in attendance.
