The Los Angeles Lakers have been in communication with the Los Angeles mayor's office to discuss the possibility of reopening their practice facility before the current shelter-at-home order in the city expires on May 15th.

The NBA will allow players to return to team facilities for voluntary workouts on May 8th.

The Lakers have not made recommendations to any of the handful of players who are out of town as to when they should return to Los Angeles.

Players will be scheduled in groups of up to four -- each getting their own half court -- for 90-minute workout periods. The workouts will be aimed at individualized skill work and conditioning.
