With the NBA on an indefinite hiatus, the league has tried to come up<\/a> with ways to keep its players relevant and fans entertained. One option involves creating a H-O-R-S-E basketball tournament with NBA and WNBA players. This inspired us to think about other ways the NBA could engage fans. Let's look at a few different options\u00a0we'd love to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The H-O-R-S-E tournament<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The league's first try wasn't an outright failure, but having an NBA 2K tournament during prime NBA time hasn't been a success either. Whether it's players not being as engaged as fans would hope, sometimes it comes off as boring to the casual fan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

H-O-R-S-E should be a little different<\/a>, as players will still be on various courts practicing social distancing, but with stars like Chris Paul<\/a>, Trae Young, and Zach LaVine, the NBA can pull viewers in quickly. Some fans may look at the inclusion of WNBA players as an afterthought. But we are excited to see what some of the sharpshooting women can do, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
