Adam Silver on suspended season: “It’s too soon to tell what the economic impact will be”
NBA commissioner is not ready to evaluate the economic impact of COVID-19. FiveThirtyEight estimated that league losses could approach $1 billion if no more games are played.
Adam Silver said it was too early to determine the financial hit of suspending the NBA season, but “it’s not a pretty picture.”
"It’s too soon to tell what the economic impact will be. We’ve been analyzing multiple scenarios on a daily if not hourly basis and we’ll continue to review the financial implications. Obviously, it’s not a pretty picture but everyone, regardless of what industry they work in, is in the same boat,” said Silver.
