So, how will the NBA be sure to keep all of its players healthy when they re-start their season.
Well, while the players work toward a ring, they’ll be wearing rings.
Jordan Rose of Complex explained:

According to the NBA’s new health and safety memo for the restart of the season, players will be receiving several different pieces of tech and safety equipment to utilize while in the Disney bubble, including a Disney Magic Band to be worn at all times and used to get through checkpoints and into rooms, social distancing alarms that will go off if players are too close to each other for too long, and these “smart” rings that they will have the choice to wear or not.
Smart rings?
Yes. Smart rings.

The rings can reportedly forecast and predict when players begin to experience COVID-related symptoms up to three days in advance. Players will have full access to the data collected on them as well, which will be studied by scientists at the University of Michigan to monitor for symptoms. The NBA regular season is set to restart on July 30.
And, of course, you too can have a Smart Ring.
The rings are also available to purchase on the Oura ring website and look to range in price from $299 to $399 depending on the make and model
