With the NBA season set to resume at the end of this month at the Walt Disney World Resort complex, Commissioner Adam Silver conceded Tuesday that the spread of the coronavirus among the NBA community could lead to a suspension of play again.

During an appearance on ‘Time 100 Talks,’ Silver said, “We haven't put a precise number on it, but if we were to see a large number of cases and see spread in our community, that would of course be a cause to stop as well.”

The Denver Nuggets said Tuesday that they've closed their practice facilities after three members of the NBA team's traveling party -- which includes players, coaches and staff -- tested positive for the coronavirus. All three are asymptomatic.
Meanwhile, New Orleans Pelicans general manager David Griffin said three of the team's players have tested positive for the virus and are in self-isolation.
