Garrett Temple is not only a respected Nets veteran aching to get back on the court. He’s also a vice president of the NBPA, the players union. So when The Athletic wanted a good read on things, including a return to play, Temple was their go-to insider.
As The Athletic’s Sam Amick and Joe Vardon write, “To put in ‘Hamilton’ parlance, Temple is in the room where it happens.”
But with the coronavirus pandemic worsening and other leagues around the world dead or on life support, the NBA is still trying to figure out how and when they can get back on the court, even without fans, possibly even in the a central location or two.
