This is kinda old news, but it’s worth talking about. The NBA is in ‘deep discussions’ about a second bubble, this one in Chicago, that would host the eight teams that were not invited to Orlando, which includes the Charlotte Hornets. Those teams will henceforth be known as the Delete Eight (credit to whoever came up with that. It wasn’t me.).
Delete Eight front offices have voiced a preference to hold mini-camps in their local markets with a couple weeks of games against the other teams not participating in Orlando, but that has received push back from NBPA union leader Michele Roberts and commissioner Adam Silver, who don’t want different standards for the different groups of teams.
