It looks like the PBA will have to wait for further instructions from the Inter-Agency Task Force regarding its plans to let some of its teams hold scrimmages in Metro Manila.

This as the Games and Amusements Board clarified that 5-on-5 scrimmages are not yet allowed in NCR Plus despite the area being switched back to general community quarantine.

GAB information officer Lorraine Rodriguez said that if the PBA were to follow the existing Joint Administrative Order, basketball practices in the NCR will be limited to individual physical conditioning. For GAB chairman Baham Mitra, it would be wise for the league to wait for the supplemental JAO before pushing through with scrimmages in the NCR.
