Storylines to follow when the NBA returns to action in Orlando

It’s official! Barring any significant change of heart or COVID-19 mandatory nationwide shutdowns, the NBA season is set to officially return around July 30th. Well, for right now, but I’ll get to that in a bit.

For now, though, let’s take a look at the bright side. The NBA is set to come back! That’s right, no more having to binge-watch your favorite athlete’s highlights on YouTube or forcing yourself to rewatch thousands of classic LeBron James 2016 final reruns on NBA TV because for the first time since March 11th we will have LIVE basketball.

Now, July 30th is still more than over a month away, and with everything that’s going on in the world right now, you and I both know anything can happen so we must be patient.

It’s just good to hear that there’s a light at the end of this very long tunnel, so if or when the season restarts, here’s a few good storylines to keep an eye on.
