Jared Dudley Reveals Extra Rules in Bubble That Players Didn’t Know About

NBA players will spend the next few weeks inside the Orlando bubble hoping to win the championship. Living inside a bubble is awkward and there are too many rules players have to follow. Well, there are also rules even players know nothing about. Los Angeles Lakers veteran Jared Dudley offered a fresh batch of details related to life inside the bubble.

The Lakers superstar talked about several topics, including the league’s safety protocols. Players and coaches signed up for this. Playing inside the bubble is demanding and challenging, but it was the only way to finish the season.

“Not only can you not understand, but some of the rules we didn’t even know until we got here,” Dudley said. “It’s not like we knew exactly what we were getting into. The quarantine for four days, you heard? It’s seven days if you want your family members to come, if they don’t fly from the private jet from your city. So if my family is living in Atlanta, they’ve got to quarantine for an extra few days because they’re not flying from LA with the team plane. There was so much stuff. They could only come on one date, so now they can’t pick the date they want to come.

“We didn’t find all that information until we got here. We basically came here to finish the season, bring awareness to different social issues, and the money. Those are the three reasons. Because when it came to the actual bubble rules and what’s going on, man there was a lot of rules we didn’t even know until we got here.”

Violating the rules will affect teams’ chances of winning the title. Rules are restricting and that helps a lot.

Dudley and his team will play their next game Friday. The Oklahoma City Thunder’s contest against the Houston Rockets will do the talks. Things will be a lot clearer on Wednesday.
