The Chinese Basketball Association is indefinitely postponing the playing of their games due to the ongoing coronavirus epidemic.

There are currently approximately 40 American-born players in the CBA.

The league could be on hiatus until March though it could be canceled outright.

The State Department of the United States is advising citizens to "reconsider travel" to China.

Potential top draft pick LaMelo Ball is reportedly done with the Australian NBL, Olgun Uluc from Fox Sports Australia has tweeted.

Uluc wrote that he received the information directly from Ball's agent, Jermaine Jackson. Jackson has been in Australia with Ball working him out before the stand out guard inured his foot in early December. Initially it was reported that Ball would miss four weeks, and he has been a fixture on the Illawarra Hawk's bench during games wearing a moon boot.

Ball made headlines after recording back to back triple doubles before being injured during practice. His team currently sits bottom of the Australian NBL ladder with a 5-17 record, having already been eliminated from post-season action.
