The year 2020 has been very unpredictable. And one of the things that has changed because of everything that is going on, is sports- specifically the NBA.

To continue the season, the NBA decided to go to Orlando and finish off the season in the bubble. And now that the season is over, everyone who is a basketball fan wants to know what they are doing for the next season. First speculation is that the NBA will start the new season around Christmas time. But some sources close to the players say that many want to start around Martin Luther King Jr. day to spread awareness for the Black Lives Matter movement. 

There’s also speculation around the possibility that there might only going to be a 72-game season, since they restarted the season in August. NBA fans agree with this shortened season because that can give less of a risk to injury. Also the NBA traveling plans are similar to the Major League Baseball.

For example, let’s say that the Phoenix Suns had to play the New York Knicks. That means the Suns had to stay in New York and play all their games there and move to the next city to reduce traveling.
