Typically in early June, the Golden State Warriors are playing in the NBA Finals and trying to win a championship. That's where they were five straight years from 2015-19. This year's different, however, and not just because the Warriors had the worst record in the NBA this season.
Not only did Golden State miss the playoffs for the first time since the 2011-12 season, but it now has a longer wait for the offseason to arrive. The NBA is preparing to resume the 2019-20 season later this summer after it was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic in mid-March, which could push the start of the offseason into October.
