How are they going to be able to avoid playing on Shabbos? Will it be in their contract? What about Kosher food as they travel on the road? What about minyanim?
Shomrei Shabbos??? If not…. where is the Kiddush Hashem?
These people have as much to do with you as all the other NBA players
Mazel Tov!
Wonderful uplifting news…assuming that they will sit out all games on Shabbos.
Oy, we have much work to do…
You mean PCNBA
I’m not sure why in the world matzav thinks this is something we should care about…
