NBA Bubble

As COVID-19 spread its wings into the U.S., American citizens panicked. Millions of questions were asked with no answers there.

History fashioned before our eyes; normal living became meandering our way through a pandemic.

Amid losing my jobs and in-person courses being cancelled, wondering what football season would look like was on the list of the least of my concerns.

People living through COVID-19 want to make life work. Adjustments and modifications to every day life are implemented in attempt to resume some version of “normal living.”

This includes practices being implemented in professional sports; specifically, the NBA. A coworker of mine suggested I explore the ins and outs of the “NBA bubble” after I’d mentioned I was unfamiliar.

After some research, I learned about the strict measures taken by the NBA to ensure their quarantined bubble is not disrupted.

The entire operation takes place in Orlando, Florida at the Walt Disney World Resort. Teams arrived at the NBA bubble on July 7th; so far, the NBA has proven to be successful.

They have become an excellent model for other leagues in how their sports will safely resume.

All in all, I’m impressed with the NBA pulling off their season accordingly. It’s incredible what humans can do to adapt.

Which ever team wins the champion will for sure make history!
