“I think the NBA will announce in June it’s coming back in early July. Give the players a month to train. NBA games start 4th of July,” Josh Toussaint, a Lakers fan wrote on Twitter. As he tagged Jared Dudley on the post, the Los Angeles Lakers player was quick to respond.
“This is what I been saying all along… We coming back! Those dates are about right.. might start a little later than the 4th,” Dudley wrote. So if Jared Dudley is right about this, we still have to wait a month longer to watch 5v5 action in the NBA. Hopefully, it resumes as soon as possible.
