Τhe NBA is postponing its season for at least one month. And while nobody is doubting that it was the right move, its impact is far-reaching and very problematic for some.
For the hundreds of people who work in NBA arenas (concession workers, operations crew, etc.) they find themselves out of a job for at least a month, probably more.
Fortunately, a few players have stepped up to offer support, including Zion Williamson, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Blake Griffin.

Kevin Love was actually the one to lead this charge, pledging to donate $100,000 to Cavs arena and support staff.

It’s an awesome gesture by the players and really shows how awesome the community can be when we band together. Here’s to hoping things return to normal soon.
