"We all knew that we wouldn't be able to expect to play as smoothly as we would in normal years," Sunrockers Shibuya guard Leo Vendrame said in an online news conference following the meeting. "But (today’s meeting) helped us pay more attention to the coronavirus and understand how we’ll cope with it when we play."
