The NBA has set a tentative schedule for the upcoming season, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

The schedule is as follows:

  • December 22: Opening night
  • March 5-10: All-Star Break (minus an ASG)
  • May 16: Regular season ends
  • May 17-to-21: Play-In Tournament for 7-to-10 seeds.
  • May 22: First-round playoffs
  • June 7: Conference semifinals
  • June 22: Conference Finals
  • July 8-22: NBA Finals

The Play-In Tournament still needs approval from the league, though Wojnarowski calls it a "formality."

The No. 7 and No. 8 seeds will need to win one game to stay in the playoffs, while the No. 9 and No. 10 seeds will need to win twice to enter the playoffs.  

The trade window is set to open on Monday at noon ET.
