MIAMI: NBA players will be allowed to return to team training facilities, provided that their local governments do not have a stay-at-home order prohibiting such movement still in place as part of the response to the coronavirus pandemic. Group practices would not be allowed yet, and teams will not yet be permitted to organize in-person workouts. But as certain states and municipalities began loosening restrictions on personal movement, the NBA decided it was time to let players return to their practice courts — if only on a limited basis. Many NBA players have said they haven’t even had access to a basket since the league ordered teams to close their practice facilities on March 19. There remains no indicator about when a full-fledged return to organized team workouts will resume, however.
