Enes Kanter joined Cedric Maxwell on his CLNS Media podcast and told Max that other players around the league said they may not play in Orlando.
Damian Lillard became the first player to express public skepticism about playing during the NBA’s return in Orlando. His concern directly involved the Trailblazers’ playoff status. While he could be angling to get Portland involved in a playoff format, other safety-related concerns exist.
“They’re like, ‘it’s just a game, I’m not going to risk my life, I’m not going to risk my family’s life,’” Kanter recalled.
