March 11, 2020 will go down as one of the most pivotal moments in NBA history. Minutes before the start of the Utah Jazz vs. Oklahoma City Thunder game, officials rushed the court to stop the game from tipping off due to fears of the novel coronavirus. The game was cancelled within 30 minutes. It was soon reported that Jazz star Rudy Gobert had tested positive for the virus. The NBA reacted quickly by suspending the season. Months later, the NBA is set to tip off in the Orlando bubble. Watch as Donovan Mitchell and NBA reporters share never-been-told details about the night the league suspended the season in this short film.

I flew back the next day to California on day 1 on full lockdown and spent that day (my birthday) alone thinking about what has just happened. It may just be a Game but this little Doc puts a finger on the pulse of how it felt, it was a domino effect and from Kobe, to NBA shutdown to day to day reckoning with a global pandemic and quarantine it's hard to know if anything will ever be the same. I cant wait for this to be over. The FIRST thing I want to do when we get fully ahead of this is go to a NBA game.
