On a court emblazoned with the words ‘ Black Lives Matter ,’ players wearing BLM warmups knelt and locked arms in a demonstration that technically violated a 39-year-old league rule requiring everyone to stand for the American and Canadian anthems

It hardly resembled the league that abruptly adjourned its season at the onset of the pandemic 141 days ago, but the NBA made its return inside the Disney World bubble on Thursday night as every member of the Pelicans, Jazz, Clippers, and Lakers p

Forbes estimated last year that the team earned $147 million in 2018 and would fetch about $3.7 billion in a sale.
