Billy, listen to me.

What?

White men can't jump.

Good morning, sweet world, and welcome to the No Dunks podcast on the Athletic Network. Monday March 16th. I'm Jay Skeets and alongside me as always, Tass Melis. Hey, everybody. It's up Tassie. We got the bearded one, Trey Kirby. Heyo. Hey, yo. And last but not least, making the magic happen is J.D. Hello. There is and here we are, no international man of mystery today. Lili is at home holding down the fort.

But we got a fun podcast in store for you. But first, let's get to the quick sort of coronavirus slash NBA update.

Because the CDC issued a recommendation on Sunday that no events are gathering should include more than 50 people for the next eight weeks.

As a result, NBA owners and executives

are bracing for the possibility of a mid to late June as a sort of best case scenario here for

the league's return. This would obviously have quite the effect on not only this season and these

playoffs, if we ever get to them, but also then the draft, and then the start of free agency,

and then Summer League, and ultimately next season.

So this is something that we're going to probably tackle later this week, either with

a standalone podcast or even when we go beach step in.

I know we're getting a lot of questions, of course, about what should the NBA do now

and what can they do.

We'll get to that later, right?

You know, we wanted to bring you a little joy here today.

So get your questions in for that Beach Steppen podcast, which we're going to get to later this week.
