Michele Roberts said the players she represents as executive director of the NBPA spent the weekend discussing how they could best use "our obvious influence -- either by playing or not playing -- to make sure we enhance and move this movement forward" rather than distracting from it.

Nearly 100 players participated in a Friday night call in which Kyrie Irving made a case against resuming the season.

"It's not a question of play or not play," Roberts told ESPN. "It's a question of, does playing again harm a movement that we absolutely, unequivocally embrace? And then whether our play can, in fact, highlight, encourage and enhance this movement.

"That's what they're talking about. They're not fighting about it; they're talking about it."

Roberts has urged players to make their own decision individually since it is personal for each player.
