NBA to Return With 22-Team Format, October NBA Finals

Season would resume July 31 in Orlando

The NBA will crown its champion in Disney World in an attempt to finish out its 2019-20 season amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The NBA board of governors approved a plan on Thursday that would see play tip off again July 31 at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, according to multiple media reports. Representatives for the NBA did not immediately return the TheWrap’s request for comment.

The plan, which passed with a vote of 29-1, will see 22 of the league’s 30 teams return. According to the New York Times, the players union is scheduled to hold a meeting Friday to review the plan. Considering how closely NBA commissioner Adam Silver and union president Chris Paul worked together on the league’s return, it is expected to be approved.

Here is how the NBA’s format will work: The 22 teams include the 16 that currently qualify for the playoffs, plus an additional six that are within shouting distance of the playoffs. Each team would play eight more games to determine final seeding, followed by a play-in tournament to determine the last two playoff teams.

The proposed schedule could see the NBA Finals end as late as Oct. 12, with the following season pushed back until Christmas Day.

The NBA’s return will give ESPN a much-needed injection of live sports, which has been forced to air old games and documentaries since the mid-March suspension of the season. The start of NFL free agency and the league’s draft in April gave ESPN a brief respite from its desolate programming lineup.

Since the mid-March shutdown, sports have slowly begun to return to the field, including NASCAR and UFC. International soccer leagues like Germany’s Bundelisga resumed play in mid-May, while the English Premier League and Spain’s La Liga are scheduled to pick back up this month.

Whether Major League Baseball, which ESPN also airs, will be able to begin its 2020 season is still up in the air. The league and its players’ association have argued through the press over the amount of games and monetary concerns. Unlike the other sports leagues, which are finishing out their suspended seasons, MLB never started its 2020 campaign.
