What is the NBA’s policy for the national anthem? Will the Dallas Mavericks still play it? What about the Utah Jazz?
The NBA said Wednesday that the national anthem will be played by all teams in the league “in keeping with longstanding league policy.” NBA Chief Communications Officer Mike Bass told reporters in a statement: “With NBA teams now in the process of welcoming fans back into their arenas, all teams will play the national anthem in keeping with longstanding league policy.” Full statement from the NBA on mandating all teams to play the national anthem: pic.
