Report: NBA expected to ask team staff to submit medical histories
The NBA is expected to ask staff from the season's 22 remaining teams to submit their personal medical histories, and a panel of physicians will review the records, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Zach Lowe.
The aim is reportedly to assess the risk of illness from COVID-19 for those inside the league's closed-campus environment when the season resumes at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando at the end of July.
Club staff members would submit their health history to a team physician, who would forward the information to at least one physician outside the organization. Then, the staff member would reportedly receive a recommendation.
There are already expected to be limitations on the number of people each organization can bring into the bubble. Proposals the National Basketball Players Association discussed on Friday include a maximum of 35 people in each team's travel party, and no more than 1,600 individuals in the bubble at any given time, The Athletic's Shams Charania reported.
