Fishing, golfing, and shot-gunning beers: How NBA players are adjusting to life inside the bubble

During the first few days of quarantine, several players voiced their concern about the food that was available.

Houston Rockets swingman Ben McLemore was clearly disappointed with his steak.

According to Marc Stein at the New York Times, the food inside the bubble would improve once players were through their initial quarantines.

As Los Angeles Lakers guard Talon Horton-Tucker wrote on his Instagram account, things do seem to be improving, including delivery from Del Frisco's steakhouse.

Beyond the food, players seem to be taking advantage of some of the entertainment options available inside the bubble outside of their hotel rooms.

Fishing has become an extremely popular outlet, with players proudly posting their catch of the day to Instagram.

Luka Doncic and Tim Hardaway Jr. of the Dallas Mavericks had some impressive catches.

Doncic posted one impressive catch he was proud of onto his Instagram story.

Darius Bazley of the Oklahoma City Thunder was excited to land his own big catch.

Beloved Mavericks big man Boban Marjanovic also caught himself a fish.

Paul George and Montrezl Harrell of the Los Angeles Clippers seemed to have a successful day on the water.

Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons had a nice catch, but his release could still use some work.

In addition to posting pictures of the fish they caught, some NBA players are using social media to interact a bit more with fans. After a challenge from the account @NBABubbleLIfe, JJ Redick told fans that if his tweet hit 10,000 retweets, he'd shotgun a beer.

To his surprise, fans quickly answered the call. "NBA Twitter never fails," Redick said.

Redick made good on his shotgun promise while relaxing in a kiddie pool.

After Redick's post, Miami Heat center Meyers Leonard decided to get in on the challenge. It is quite an impressive shotgun.

The @NBABubbleLife account is ready to keep the challenge going if more players are willing to step up.

Outside of fishing and beers, many players have also posted on social media during their trips to the golf course.

Pelicans guard Josh Hart seemed to be having a tough round.

Some players chose to stay inside and beat the heat. Hassan Whiteside had his mind blown while watching the show "Naruto."

Quin Cook attempted to stream a game of NBA2K with his Lakers teammates LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Due to overwhelming demand, it was a struggle at first.

But eventually, the trio was able to get in the game. James scored himself a chase-down block reminiscent of one of the most memorable plays of his career.

The Nets took to making their own game, challenging each other to roll a ball as close to the wall as possible, with the closest roll earning the win. No word on what the stakes of the game were.

After a somewhat bumpy start, it seems like the NBA world is beginning to settle into its stay in the bubble.
