The NBA might play games at Disney in Florida when the league returns.
Currently, the league is preparing plans to return amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and it might have a site in mind. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
According to Shams Charania, games might be played at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. It’s unclear if players would be kept there around the clock, but it seems likely.

This could be a fun and solid idea from the NBA. Due to the virus, players will likely need to be kept in an isolated area where they can be monitored.
If they’re all at Disney in Florida, then medical professionals could monitor them around the clock to make sure they’re healthy.

Playing the games at Disney would also just be kind of cool. It’d have a fun AAU tournament vibe to it, and I’m here for it.
All I know for sure is that the NBA needs to figure out a plan sooner than later. Fans are craving the return of sports, and the NBA is near the top of that list.
Bringing the games to Disney could be awesome if it’s done correctly and safely.
