NBA Players And Staff Overseas Are Now Allowed To Re-Enter The U.S.
Players and staff that were abroad that were previously not allowed to re-enter the country have now been granted special permission to return due to a decree from the U.S Secretary of Homeland Security. With this order, another major roadblock has been cleared toward's the NBA's return.
"Professional sporting events provide much-needed economic benefits, but equally important, they provide community pride and national unity," Acting U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf wrote in a statement. "In today's environment, Americans need their sports. It's time to reopen the economy and it's time we get our professional athletes back to work."
