The NBA continues to discuss the possibility of holding a tournament and a play-in game for the playoffs during the 20-21 season.
The league has long planned to use the 75th anniversary season in 21-22 to experiment with new revenue-generating formats, but they could revisit the option for next season after using the play-in tournament during the Orlando restart.
The Portland Trail Blazers won the play-in tournament during the restart.
Adam Silver previously proposed a midseason tournament and a play-in tournament that never went to a vote due to a lack of support, but he reportedly still "wants these things badly."
