Jared Dudley critical of Shaq’s call to ‘scrap’ remainder of NBA season

One NBA player thinks Shaquille O’Neal is ignoring some important factors in calling for the league to “scrap” the remainder of its season.

Shaq urged the league to cancel the remainder of the 2019-20 season on Friday, arguing that it was too much of a risk to bring the necessary personnel together to play games, even without fans. That take didn’t go down well with Lakers forward Jared Dudley, who warned of serious economic impacts if games are not played.

This is the next big discussion. Do players feel safe playing games right now? Dudley is comfortable with it, but there are apparently concerns among some players about one potential plan to restart the season. Ultimately, we won’t know much until there’s a more concrete plan on how to proceed. For now, Shaq’s opinion seems to be an outlier.

It’s worth noting that Dudley may have his own reasons for wanting the chance to finish the season.
