The NBA’s Return Plan Was Approved by the Board of Governors. Now What? | The Mismatch

After Thursday’s board of governors call with Adam Silver, the NBA has almost unanimously approved the league’s plan to return with eight regular-season games followed by a play-in tournament for the 8th seed in each conference.
