The NBA is expected to have a full 82-game season next year despite the coronavirus pandemic, according to Keith Smith of Yahoo Sports.

“Everything I have been told is that there is expected to be a full 82 game schedule for 20-21. Folks I have spoken to think they can condense the 20-21 schedule a bit and get back close to the normal calendar for 21-22. A permanent move of the NBA calendar will take a while,” Smith tweeted.
