The NBA has already announced that all three playoff games today will be postponed and rescheduled. The Milwaukee Bucks players decided to not take the court for Game 5 of their first-round series against the Orlando Magic, which was supposed to tip-off at 4 p.m. ET. Following that decision, the Rockets and Thunder decided to also not play today, as well as the Lakers and Trail Blazers.
The NBA, owners and front offices didn't see this wave of player boycotts coming today. Hours ago, they all expected to be playing these games tonight. This is a pivot point for the NBA and professional sports in North America.
