NBA Announces Return to Play with 22 Teams

6/23/2020

Back in the beginning of June, the NBA officially announced its return to play plan with 22 teams.

I delayed this article because it is not really relevant to the Wolves since they were excluded from the return to play plan.

The NBA will resume at some point in July, while the Wolves now start the offseason.

Positives are that now the Wolves will be healthy by next season, which the starting date for that is still up in the air.

Lots of things that are still unknown at this point so please follow me on Twitter as I try to keep everyone informed on what is going on in the sports world and NBA.

Stay safe Wolves fans.
