Scouting in the time of COVID-19 ... not so normal
As the Nets prepare for their first scrimmage —what we would call a preseason game if it were in October and not mid-season, they face daunting challenges, some unique to them, some shared by the other 21 teams in the “bubble”. One of the latter is scouting.
It’s not just looking at rosters and checking the latest injury reports.

Will injured players, once thought to be out of the season, be ready? Not to mention chemistry!?!
