ICYMI: Long wait?
With the health crisis still not showing signs of being contained and no cure still available, things are looking bleak across the globe, especially for sports. And if a clear path to beating the pandemic isn’t discovered soon, the PBA—as with other sporting leagues all over the world—might take a bit longer to reopen shop, according to commissioner Willie Marcial.
Marcial met with the PBA Board on Saturday and they agreed, among other things, to make a decision about the season in August. If that doesn’t happen, the PBA could reopen a year after the pandemic shuttered its season in the second week of March this year. Also, the PBA is doing everything it can to help out its employees, especially its game day staff that it pays even though the league has played just one game—the opener on March 6—this season.
