as concerns about another spike in the fall and winter intensify.

"But there is still a lot that we need to learn in terms of rapid testing, for example, [if] would that be a means for getting fans into our building," Silver said. The NBA is currently holding its conference finals series with four teams remaining in the NBA's postseason bubble in Orlando. Barnes said another factor would be the "setup" of next season and if the league would need to participate in another bubble.Silver said the league is learning from other sports, including Major League Baseball and the National Football League, as the NBA wants to utilize "new information" about Covid-19 to bring back spectators.
