NBA Rumors: Board Of Governors Votes 29-1 To Approve 22-Team Plan To Finish 2019-20 Season

The return of the NBA is just around the corner as the league proposed its official plan for finishing the 2019-20 season to the Board of Governors.

To no surprise, under the proposal, the season will be completed at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex on the Walt Disney World Resort campus in Orlando, Fla. The 22 invited teams will consist of the 16 currently occupying playoff positions as well as teams on the bubble, which includes the Washington Wizards, Portland Trail Blazers, New Orleans Pelicans, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs and Phoenix Suns.

Instead of going straight to the playoffs, everyone will play eight regular-season games, which will not only decide seeding in each conference, but also who will be the eighth seed in each conference.
