BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — The NBA season could resume at Orlando's Walt Disney World Resort, according to The Athletic.

The property which has numerous hotels and a full sports center has become the front-runner over other sites like Las Vegas and Houston.

According to The Athletic, it remains unclear when the games would begin, but multiple sources say the prospect of players fully training in mid-June and playing by mid-July has been the most popular and possible scenario discussed.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver informed players on a May 8 call that he hopes that the league is able to have daily testing, no stoppage of play if and when a player tests positive, and isolating anyone who does test positive in a quarantine.
