Basketball superstar LeBron James said he won't play if his Los Angeles Lakers have to hold games behind closed doors due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The NBA has reportedly told teams to look into strategies on how to play without fans in the arena amid concerns over the spreading virus.
"Nah. It's impossible," James said after the Lakers' 113-102 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
"If I show up to the arena and there ain't no fans in the crowd, then I ain't playing."
"I play for my teammates and I play for the fans. That's what it is all about."
- No high-fives -

"We are coordinating with our teams and consulting with the CDC and infectious disease specialists on the coronavirus and continue to monitor the situation closely."
