Fauci said he was pleased to see the NBA's intent not to be reckless.
The leading expert on COVID-19 in the United States told Stadium he found the plan to play games at Walt Disney World Resort “quite creative” and potentially a mold for other sports to follow.
Dr. Anthony Fauci told @Stadium he is supportive of the NBA’s restart plan: “It’s quite creative.. I think they might very well be quite successful with it... They really wanted to make sure that the safety of the players was paramount.” pic.twitter.
NBA’s plan to return met with concernThe plan is for the NBA to bring 22 teams to Orlando, quarantine them and play out eight regular season games before heading into the playoffs.

Irving is reportedly concerned about the optics of a predominantly Black league coming back during a pandemic to entertain the nation. Clippers point guard Lou Williams called sports at this juncture “a distraction” rather than a healing moment.
