Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma thinks the NBA should relocate from Florida to another warm-weather locale if the league's bubble continues into next season.
NBPA executive director Michele Roberts said Tuesday that depending on how the coronavirus pandemic develops, it may be necessary for the 2020-21 season to also be played inside a bubble. That led Kuzma to suggest Hawaii as a possible location.
Nba has done amazing job with safety & protocols. Make the bubble Hawaii. Simple🤷🏽♂️ https://t.co/7ldQH5PJu6

As of Wednesday, Hawaii has reported 1,757 cases of COVID-19 and 26 deaths.
A start date for the 2020-21 NBA campaign has yet to be announced, but there have been talks of potentially pushing it back to December.
