Well they could at the very least use a standard court and change our sections for logos and such. You do also have three buildings to use at WWoS. They likely would stagger start times if teams are playing at the same time so that would also stagger court changes. This is a compromise for all so they likely want to make the players feel as comfortable as possible. The NBA is more player driven than any other league really.
Not to mention there very well coukd be a difference between the court at espn and those the nba use. The bigger issue with this is would be if the espn floor is removable or permanent.
It's also not weird for this type of stuff. No idea if it still exists, but back in the early 2000s when they were still playing davis cup tennis the players could decide what court they used at the us host venue. They used the court we used in san jose, so it got shipped to the venue, forget where, amd as installed as it would have been in san jose.
I would also think if they dont have emp used to turn over they could get people at least from the orlando arena to assist if not other places. It doesn't take long as long as espn is able to be changed out. I never paid attention to what I was walking on at race expos to know of it was the bare floor or a cover over the court.
