The COVID-19 pandemic that spread across the world at the beginning of 2020 was not only a big threat to public health, but also to the entire sports industry. After Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert was the first NBA player to test positive for the coronavirus, the league decided to suspend its season indefinitely in an attempt to stem the spread of the virus. This unprecedented move was covered extensively in the media with ramifications for both players and fans alike. In a March 2020 survey, 37 percent of respondents stated that they had seen and heard a lot about the NBA suspending its season.
