The CHECK or your BELIEFS?
In the end, the check will always win out for most people. We are talking about millions of dollars for some players and hundreds of thousands for others.
It is still amazing that athletes, sometime in the middle of the game, will ingest things into their bodies they have no idea about but suddenly are scared to take what essentially is just another version of the flu shot.
The NBA just sent out this statement.
“Any player who elects not to comply with local vaccination mandates will not be paid for games that he misses.”
For someone like Andrew Wiggins, that means he would be forfeiting upwards of $15 million.
At the time I am posting this story, there are about 45-50 NBA players who haven’t been vaccinated. I expect that number to be ZERO by the time the season starts. No one likes to lose money.
