Teams hope to push date of NBA draft to August

NBA executives would love to have the NBA draft pushed back to early in August.
The draft is scheduled for June 25th but multiple teams hope of encouraging the league office to push the date no sooner than August 1.

Per ESPN, Multiple top team executives expressed to ESPN their belief that shifting the draft date would give organizations more time to salvage the essential elements of the pre-draft process, possibly allowing for in-person workouts, interviews and medical evaluations of prospects that current social distancing and shelter-in-place guidelines make impossible.
For now, the NBA remains on commissioner Adam Silver’s timeline of May 1 as the earliest that decisions on the remaining league calendar will start to be made, sources said.
