NBA players are giving their money to support arena workers affected by coronavirus

The coronavirus has shut down practically all major U.S. sports and by extension the arenas they are played in. While for most people, that means missing out on their favorite sports, for many, it means their jobs are in limbo and paychecks they rely on are gone. Several athletes have pledged donations to support the various workers in arenas they call home.

Kevin Love announced via Instagram he would be donating $100,000 to assist staff of the Cleveland Cavaliers arena.
