The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to affect people and businesses throughout the country and the world.
Many teams across all sports have taken measures to help them through these tough times and the Los Angeles Lakers are no exception as the team reportedly asked senior-level staff to take salary reductions, though the team also paired with the Los Angeles Clippers and Los Angeles Kings to help pay the salaries for Staples Center staff.
It is a difficult position to be in as NBA teams are obviously extremely profitable normally and have a lot of employees to pay and few teams in all sports are more profitable than the Lakers.
