    Not sure who is doing the testing but players might have incentive to have a "positive " test. If you do not want to play, I believe they still collect money.

    Yeah, but it would also mean the NBA would throw the CBA in the shredder

    Ariza gave up 1.8 mil to not play....I don't think you'll get paid to not play...I doubt Gobert gets paid to stay out...I think every team is already scrambling to shave salary as it is

    Their pay is slightly cut, like less than 1%. They’re getting paid otherwise.

    I don’t bet but nothing has happened they didn’t expect. This is why they tested weeks before going to Orlando.

    Guessing all pro sports are going to have to. I just do not see this going away and being able to play with 20k fans. Once we restart, maybe fall 2021 my guess is there is a significant price adjustment for tickets.
