The rest of the NBA season is set to be played at Florida's Disney World Resort from 31st July.

The season was suspended on 11th March because of coronavirus measures.

Thirteen Western Conference teams and nine Eastern Conference teams will contest eight games each to determine seedings for the play-offs.

The ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando includes a 5,000-seat indoor basketball facility.

Under the NBA's proposals, all 22 teams will be based at the resort and games will be played without spectators to minimise the threat of Covid-19.

The National Basketball Players Association must agree to the plan before it is confirmed. It is expected to vote during a conference call.
