The NBA is concerned about the growing number of coronavirus cases in Florida but intends to go ahead with its plan to restart the season in a "bubble" in the state, ESPN reported Sunday.

Florida has experienced record number of daily diagnoses of COVID-19 the past three days, with Saturday's number of new cases at 4,049 -- a single-day record. The NBA plans to host players at The Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Fla., where 22 teams with playoff chances will finish the regular season. The postseason will follow at the same site.
