NBA G League cancels remainder of season

NEW YORK — NBA G League President Shareef Abdur-Rahim announced Thursday that the remainder of the 2019-20 NBA G League season, which was suspended March 12, has been canceled.

The NBA G League’s regular season was scheduled to conclude March 28.

“While canceling the remainder of our season weighs heavily on us, we recognize that it is the most appropriate action to take for our league,” said Abdur-Rahim. “I extend my sincere gratitude to NBA G League players and coaches for giving their all to their teams and fans this season. And to our fans, I thank you and look forward to resuming play for the 2020-21 season.”

In the coming weeks, the NBA G League will announce end-of-season award winners, including the Most Valuable Player, Dennis Johnson Coach of the Year and Rookie of the Year.

The Wisconsin Herd, the affiliate of the Milwaukee Bucks, ends the season with the league’s top record at 33-10. The Herd went 17-3 on the road and finished the season winning eight of its final 10 games.
