The NBA has begun allowing teams to return to their facilities to conduct workouts on an optional basis.

There is an expectation that these workouts will be able to expand by June 1.

Teams also expect that around June 1 they’ll be allowed to expand workouts that are already underway with in-market players, sources tell @ZachLowe_NBA and me. https://t.co/CjZCT861o5
