SALT LAKE CITY — As 26 of the NBA’s 30 teams have transitioned to offseason mode, the biggest question facing the league moving forward is when next season will start.
On Tuesday, commissioner Adam Silver told broadcaster Bob Costas in an interview on CNN that, “I continue to believe that we’re going to be better off getting into January.”
Earlier this month, the Deseret News confirmed a report that NBA teams were sent a memo from the league that said the season would start no earlier than Christmas Day of this year, but Silver said Tuesday that date seems premature at this point.
