Families of NBA players are readying to join the bubble at Disney World later this month and the league is attempting to ensure it all goes smoothly.
That’s why it is requiring players to provide proof of “long-standing relationships” with non-family members who are on the entrance list, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported. Any casual acquaintance will not be allowed, such as those "known by the player only through social media or an intermediary," per the memo acquired by Wojnarowski.
