The Toronto Raptors and other NBA teams will not be allowed to play games in Canada for the 2020-21 season, according to The Associated Press.
Instead, the Raptors play their home games in Tampa, according to multiple reports.
The federal government dashed the plans for the Raptors to play homes games in Scotiabank Arena, per the Toronto Star.
For months, while the NBA worked to come up with medical protocols and public safety measures that would allow them to play games in Canada, the Raptors were looking for a new location to play their home games during the upcoming season, according to Toronto Star.
