    Out of the box idea to get NBA back soon
    Maybe it's not medically responsible, but as far as I've understood once a person has had the virus, he cannot get it anymore (at least for a year but probably longer) nor can he contaminate anyone anymore.

    So what about this:

    Bring all the NBA teams to their training facility. Put them together with 1 proven corona virus carrier and let them have a good time, party, game, play some ball, whatever they want. As soon as 1 player starts feeling sick, test him and once it's confirmed he has the virus, let this outsider leave the facility. Then, continue to let the players do their thing for the next 2-3 weeks (don't let them have visitors and don't let them leave). After this period, everyone will have caught the virus and gotten rid of it. Since the players are all young and super fit, they won't have any damage from the virus and some of them will not even have felt sick. Some other will have had some discomforts, but not unbearable.

    Let all NBA teams do this in the same time-span in their own training facilities. After this, all players will be immune and ready to go again. They can play out the season without fans. Camera crews, referees, coaches, all of them can be there without any risk of being infected by the players or infecting the players themselves. As long as the group stays under 50 in total it's within the rules.

    In this scenario the league could resume before the end of April easily. Same goes for NHL and MLB obviously. What am I missing here?

    Not smart

    Nobody really knows how this virus attacks or if it can attack again.

    Sports is not more important than health.

      Such a move will be considered reckless and insensitive at this time.

        Idea. Lets put 360 multi-millionaires in 1 giant facility and knowingly endanger their health by forcing them to get sick.

        Would love to be the lawyer or insurance guy who gets that phone call.

            You can laugh about it, but personally I think more than half of the players would agree to this.

            Obviously it's not happening and I know that.

              No they wouldn't. Nets & Lakers both pressured their teams into getting everyone checked, when tests are supposed to be reserved for the ill. Panick reigns. Like those people fighting over toilet paper in youtube vids.
