Pretty proud to have Cuban and Zeller as IU alums.

Cody Zeller @CodyZeller

Absolutely! We all have fun playing and watching NBA games, but many of our hard working hourly employees and support staff depend on wages from our home games. We’re going to make sure that they’re taken care of!  Even if I have to pay out of pocket to help out

Pretty great to see IU guys doing that. Come on Vic and Bryant join the gang.

What do you guys think will happen? Cancel the rest of the regular season and seed 1-8 start playoffs when they normally would or pick up where they left off? Or a combo of both.

Uhh... I guess it depends on where everything is with this? Could just cancel it all. Which I’d be real mad as a Bucks fan.

Giannis Antetokounmpo @Giannis_An34

It’s bigger than basketball! And during this tough time I want to help the people that make my life, my family’s lives and my teammates lives easier.  Me and my family pledge to donate $100,000 to the Fiserv Forum staff.  We can get through this together!

I think the NBA will be canceled altogether. Too much risk and it’ll only get worse before it gets better.

Zion Williamson 19-years old.  Can't get much classier than this

ESPN has tried their hardest to make me dislike him as they usually do with over-exposure, but he’s such an awesome person on top of his talent, I just can’t do it.

In an interview with TNT’s Ernie Johnson, NBA commissioner Adam Silver says he's told his people with the NBA that there will be no way to have a real answer about where things are headed in terms of starting the season again until, at a minimum, May 1.

Silver says that no decisions have been made about whether there will be regular season games if the season resumes. He said "in an ideal world" there would be. He also says that, at some point, things get too late in the calendar before they begin to impact next season.

With the numbers of the traditional labor force that are currently unemployed due to the virus or have had to take forced reductions in their pay, I'm afraid I'm not overly sympathetic to professional athletes.

NBA players to receive 25% less in paychecks starting May 15
