New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick said that he has had no problems with the conditions inside of the bubble at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida.
The environment of the bubble became front and center last week as teams began to arrive at the Wide World of Sports Complex. Some players depicted the food options as being less than ideal while others were fine with the items on the menu.
Memphis Grizzlies rookie Ja Morant called out those players that took issue with the conditions, saying that he wasn’t a “silver spoon guy” and that the options have been fine. Redick agreed with that assessment on Sunday during his media availability with reporters.
Getting outside and golfing yesterday was key. The bubble life has been fine. I think Ja Morant said it best: The hotel is fine, the food is fine, everything is fine. We’re here to play basketball, to further our mission. We have a responsibility and a job to do. It’s fine.
As players began to exit quarantine and were free to move around the bubble, the league has started to provide catered meals from different restaurants, including Del Frisco’s, The Oceanaire and Joe’s Crab Shack among others.
Meanwhile, the players on the Pelicans appear to be adjusting well to the bubble. Redick has been among the players taking advantage of the on-site golf course and even took part in a Bud Light shotgunning contest after losing a bet with fans on Twitter.
The Pelicans will kick off the season restart July 30 vs. the Utah Jazz.
