About this episode

Introducing a new podcast, VICE News Reports. Episode 2: The Bubble.


We take you inside the NBA/WNBA bubble told through exclusive recordings.


To salvage their 2020 seasons amid the pandemic, the WNBA and NBA create a “bubble” where players and staff are walled off from the rest of the world. We follow two players, Monique Billings, a starting forward for the Atlanta Dream, and Udonis Haslem, captain of the Miami Heat, during their first months inside the Bubble.
