On December 21, Beijing time, the NBA recently encountered a serious epidemic, and a number of players triggered health and safety agreements and entered quarantine, which also led to the impact of the team. In order to avoid more game postponements, the NBA league reached a new regulation with the players' union, which immediately triggered a wave of signings as soon as it was implemented.
The NBA has reached an agreement with the players' union that teams with players who test positive for the pandemic can get places to sign new players. The specific rules are that if the team has two positive players, one place is awarded, if there are three positive players, two places are awarded, and so on. The salaries of these new players will not be counted in the team's salary cap, which allows the team to sign with confidence and boldness.
The Lakers have also had a number of triggers recently, including head coach Vogel, who signed 2 people in a row, namely Gemellio Jones and Gemellio Jones, to make up for the lack of manpower on the team.
The Raptors signed Nick Stauskas, who played for the Development League, last appeared in the NBA in the 18-19 season, playing for the Blazers and Cavaliers, averaging 5.9 points, 1.9 boards and 1.2 assists per game; then signed Brandon Goodwin and Juwan Morgan;
The Lone Ranger signed Chris, who did not show his talent as a 16-year draft pick, averaging 8 points and 4.9 rebounds per game so far in his career. Originally, I got a lot of opportunities in the Warriors, but unfortunately I was plagued by injuries, and it depended on whether I could grasp it this time.
The 76ers signed guard Taylor Johnson with a difficult exception, who played for the Nets last season, averaging 5.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game.
The Knicks signed Back Torterson to a ten-day contract and Matt Mooney from the Development League, while the Bulls signed a second 10-day contract with McKinney. Teams have signed new players one after another, thanks to the league's new rules, and more players will return to the league, which may be a positive for free agents, who can get the opportunity to show themselves and have the opportunity to stay once they perform well.
More than 100 players have triggered the league due to a severe outbreak, which also reminds the outside world of the shutdown and return to the park. However, from the current situation, the league has no intention of stopping, as for not returning to the park, an executive also said very directly: this is impossible, will not return to the park to play.
That's a big challenge for both the players and the league, first of all, the income is reduced too much, and then the players don't want that kind of life. At present, the NBA does not have any plans to shut down and return to the park, and a series of changes are underway.
