It’s been a while since fans attended an NBA game.

But could that change come the 2020-21 season?

As we’re sure you know by now, the league paused operations in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Games did not resume until months later in the Orlando, Fla., bubble, and fans were not allowed to attend games.

That might not be the case once the new seasons begins, though, as The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported Thursday the NBA is hoping to open the luxury suites at 25-50% capacity.

The NBA and its Players’ Association reportedly approved to start the season Dec. 22. So, now we wait to see if fans will be allowed to watch a game in person.
