A look inside the NBA bubble with former Penn State men’s basketball player Josh Reaves

When Dallas Mavericks guard Josh Reaves found out he had the opportunity to travel to Orlando with the Mavericks to compete for an NBA championship this summer, there was no hesitation to say yes — even during a global pandemic.

Reaves is hoping to prove himself at the highest level during this unique time despite playing in just two NBA games this season and spending most of his time in the G-League, the NBA’s developmental league.

When he received the news that he’d be traveling with the NBA club, he made the 18-hour drive to Dallas from his home in Virginia as quick as he could.
