Amid increasing concerns about the COVID-19 coronavirus, the NBA asked teams on Friday to begin developing processes and identifying actions required if they have to play games without fans in attendance, limiting attendees to only what is deemed essential staff, according to a memo obtained by ESPN. Los Angeles Lakers star Le Bron James scoffed at the idea of playing games without fans in attendance.

Teams have been asked to identify the team and arena staff essential to conduct such a game and to develop processes for communicating quickly and effectively with team and arena staff who are/arent essential for this purpose.
