The city of Toronto could be welcoming more than the NHL when professional sports finally make their return.
According to Yahoo! Sports insider Chris Haynes, Toronto is among the cities being discussed as a possible ‘hub location’ to host NBA games whenever the league finally decides to resume. It was mentioned during a conference call involving NBA commissioner Adam Silver
“(Silver) mentioned Toronto in that conference call, too,” Haynes told Sportsnet earlier this week.
“He said Toronto is an option, but he would like to keep the season in the States. But he said he’s not ruling out Toronto.”
Despite all of this, Toronto basketball fans should keep their expectations in check. Orlando and Las Vegas are apparently the two most likely cities that will host games when the league returns to action.
More to come.
