He told ESPN on Tuesday night that he wants to remain with his wife and three children, including a 6-year-old son with a history of respiratory illnesses. By sitting out, Bradley figures to lose a projected $650,000 in salary.
According to an ESPN report, former Knicks shooting guard J.R. Smith is a leading candidate to replace Bradley on the roster when the league resumes play.
Bradley averaged 8.6 points and 2.3 rebounds while starting 44 games before the season was shut down in March because of the coronavirus. The Lakers are the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference heading into the 22-team restart.
“I can’t imagine making any decision that might put my family’s health and well-being at even the slightest risk,” Bradley told ESPN. “As promised also, I will use this time away to focus on the formation of projects to help strengthen my communities.”
Bradley and the Nets’ Kyrie Irving have been vocal leaders of a players’ coalition that has sought to keep a focus on social justice and racial equality issues.
