Adam Silver remains absent due to protocols for Game 6 of NBA Finals

NBA commissioner Adam Silver will remain absent for Game 6 of the NBA Finals due to health and safety protocols, the league announced.

Silver typically attends all finals games, and also missed Game 5.

The league did not say if Silver had tested positive for COVID-19 or been deemed a close contact of someone who had, nor released any details about his health.

Should the Golden State Warriors win the NBA title on Thursday, deputy commissioner Mark Tatum will present the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

Silver has been the NBA’s commissioner since February 2014. This is the ninth championship series the league has held during his tenure, including the 2020 season that resumed inside a bubble at Walt Disney World in Florida in the early stages of the pandemic.
