Looks like the N.B.A. will continue to not test players for cannabis use. A policy that was adopted by the league last season when the players returned to the bubble to finish out the year.

The announcement was made by NBA reporter Ben Dowsett.

In March, Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes reported that the NBA and the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) reached an agreement to halt drug testing during the hiatus.

The agreement was only temporary at the time, as the league was looking to limit both close-contact situations and help mitigate stress levels during the extended quarantine and high-stress bubble experience.
