Forget those viral photos: NBA players will be eating well at Disney World

Don’t worry about those food photos posted on social media when NBA players began arriving at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, Florida.

The NBA will provide enhanced culinary options for the season restart, partnering with an executive chef and a chain of restaurants to supplement several other food and beverage choices.

The league informed teams of options and COVID-19 safety protocols in a memo sent late Wednesday.

Executive chef Shawn Loving, who has worked with USA Basketball at the Olympics and other international competitions, will oversee a commercial kitchen where each team can provide one culinary staffer to help prepare additional meals.
