Lakers owner Rob Pelinka spoke to a small group of reporters from his home in Orange County through an online video conference.
Even though Pelinka highlighted the importance of public health in every statement, he hoped there is a way for the NBA season to resume.
Talking about how he wishes that atleast the playoffs are conducted, Pelinka said that everyone was hoping that a champion would be crowned. However, that would happen only if the health officials, Adam Silver and the league authorities give the go-ahead.
Then, the 50-year-old revealed that he felt as if the franchise has had to take tests for a long time.

However, he still feels that the team needs to take its final exam and pass it well.
“We haven’t had the chance to take a final exam yet. But that doesn’t mean we’re not going to celebrate the A’s that we’ve gotten so far. I do think there’s a sense of fulfillment in that.”
