Louisville basketball will play home games at a limited capacity in 2020-21. Why it was a good decision to go through with having fans.

After playing half of a season with limited capacity in football, Louisville basketball has implemented a plan to have fans for the 2020-21 season.

“KFC Yum! Center officials have worked collaboratively with UofL, the Governor’s office and others to craft a safe, flexible ticketing and operation plan for fans at a reduced arena capacity of 15 percent, allowing seating to be appropriately distanced,” the school said in a statement on Wednesday.
