Amid Criticisms and Complaints, Ja Morant and Enes Kanter Showcase the Positive Sides of the NBA Bubble

The most difficult part for the NBA players is staying at a single place away from their families for a significant period of time. But the NBA seems to have done their bit in making players feel comfortable.

Washington Wizards coach Scott Brooks was among those praised the facilities inside the bubble in Orlando. After flying to Orlando, the team had to quarantine themselves for 36 hours and test negative for coronavirus.

They later had scrimmage sessions, albeit without a few of their key players. Brooks felt good to see his team practice together after a long time and praised the NBA for making it possible.

“I thought the practice was outstanding, I was real concerned because we hadn’t done anything live,” Brooks said (Via NBC Sports).

“I don’t know how they did it, how the NBA was able to get it all done. Our facility here, our gym is pretty incredible. The weight room is amazing. The hotels are great. Everything is good. I have no complaints. It’s just like a road trip for us.”

While inside the bubble, the players might be away from their families, but they are provided with many entertainment facilities to bide their time. They have access to amusement rides and golf courses inside the Disney World apart from facilities like a swimming pool, video games, and table tennis.

Among others who pointed out the positives inside the NBA bubble was Memphis Grizzlies rookie Ja Morant. He replied to those complaining about the facilities, saying he was content.

“My room is fine. The food is fine. I’m not a silver spoon guy, so I know how to live in the conditions. People complaining but I’m doing good,” Morant told the reporters.

Also, Boston Celtics’ Enes Kanter shared a short clip on Instagram showing the different kinds of snacks that the NBA has provided inside the bubble.

As things stand, NBA will resume its season on July 30 after a few practice games in the week prior to it.
