NBA close to authorizing second bubble for the “Delete Eight”

The NBA has already authorized one restart for 22 teams. Those 22 teams were picked as the only ones that could make a case for playoff contention. They’ll play eight games each then start the postseason.

However, another scenario is seeking the league’s approval. A second bubble that takes place in Chicago, not Orlando, and would include the eight teams dubbed the “Delete Eight” is gaining momentum.

Those teams would include the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers, two teams that have met in the NBA Finals several times over the last few seasons.
