On a call with the NBA’s Board of Governors on Thursday, NBA commissioner Adam Silver will outline a 22-team proposal for returning to play at Walt Disney World Resort, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
The league’s owners are expected to endorse the proposal, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
The proposal reportedly includes the 16 teams currently slotted for playoffs seeds and six additional teams. According to Wojnarowski, all 22 teams will play eight additional regular-season games to determine seeding prior to a play-in series for the eighth seed. That tournament will feature the eighth- and ninth-place teams, only if they finish within four games of each other, Charania reported.
