NBA players could possibly receive paycheck reductions later this month as the season remains suspended amid the coronavirus pandemic.
According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, the NBA is proposing to the NBPA that players take a 50% reduction in pay starting April 15. However, the NBPA has countered that suggestion with a proposed 25% paycheck reduction in mid-May.
Last month, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the NBA was planning to pay players their full salaries through April 1 but "left open the option" of withholding pay starting on the 15th. The league was considering enforcing the force majeure provision in the collective bargaining agreement due to missed games and loss in revenue.
