With uncertainty about whether this season will resume, it's hard for NBA teams to plan for what comes next beyond the current shutdown. But eventually they will move on, whether after the resumption of the season or a cancellation, and have to work through the offseason roster moves.
According to a report on ESPN.com, though, NBA teams are united in hopes of encouraging the league to push back the draft, scheduled for June 25, to no sooner than Aug. 1. The hope is that it will allow teams time to conduct the predraft process of working out prospects whose own seasons were cut short.
The current schedule calls for the NBA draft lottery on May 19 and the NBA draft combine in Chicago from May 21-24.
