Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant goes up against Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac during a game on Feb. 24. Stalled since the COVID-19 pandemic, the NBA announced Saturday, May 23, it is in “exploratory conversations” with Disney World to restart the league’s season at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. (Mark J.
