This summer, NBA players lived and played at Disney World in a bubble so the games could go on during the coronavirus pandemic.
Now, the players union is trying to help the Disney workers during a time when thousands are facing unemployment or furloughs.
The NBA Players Association said it is donating $50,000 to a union-run food bank for displaced Central Florida tourism employees.
“Our hope with this donation is to say ‘thank you’ and extend the same kindness to the Members of Local 737 that they extended to our Members this past summer and fall,” said Michele Roberts, executive director of the NBPA, in a statement.
