The LA Times reports that even as the NBA canceled league meetings in Orlando, Fla., along with its rookie orientation program and a handful of international exhibition games, the Lakers on Thursday continued to prepare as if their training camp would be held as planned.

The team is scheduled to open camp in Hawaii on Sept. 29, play an exhibition game against the Golden State Warriors in Honolulu on Oct. 7, and play two games against the Warriors in Tokyo on Oct. 13-14.

NBA spokesman Brian McIntyre said the situation remained too volatile to predict, that the league acted on coming events first, and that it would begin to consider the Lakers' trip to Japan as those dates neared. It is even possible, he said, that the league would delay the start of training camp. Most teams open camp Oct. 2.

"We're going to evaluate everything," he said, including enhancing security at NBA arenas.
