The NBA season is in talks to resume in late July
Wide World of Sports Complex, a vast facility located in the company’s Disney World complex near Orlando, Mike Bass, the league’s chief communications officer, said in a statement. Under the plan, the Disney property would be utilized as “a single site for an NBA campus for games, practices and housing.” The season, which was suspended in March, could potentially resume in late July.
Other sports have unveiled plans to return to the field. Fox last weekend broadcast the first Nascar race to take place in weeks, with no fans allowed in the stands. The PGA Tour intends to launch new matches in June. But those activities do not require a large group of players to come in close contact with one another to facilitate game play. Basketball – as well as hockey, football and baseball – does.
