The decision came after a Utah Jazz player tested positive for COVID-19, resulting in the delay and then cancelation of Wednesday's game between the Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder just "seconds" before tip-off.
The organization did not name the player but said he "was not in the arena." Later reports revealed him to be Rudy Gobert. His teammate Donovan Mitchell has also tested positive for the virus.
Previously, the league was reported to have been considering playing the season's games without fans in attendance. The Golden State Warriors had already planned to play Thursday's home game against the Brooklyn Nets in an empty arena, due to San Francisco's ban on public events attended by 1,000 or more people.
Other major sports organizations are following suit. On Thursday, Major League Soccer announced that the 2020 season has been suspended for 30 days "as the league continues to assess the impact of COVID-19."
