Normally we’d be into the NBA season by now, but this year is far from normal. From a shut down in March to no live sports until late July with MLB and the NBA Bubble in Orlando, the playoffs didn’t end until October 11th. The 2020 NBA preseason will kick off tomorrow with 5 games. The preseason runs from December 11th to December 19th. The regular season starts on December 22nd. December 11th slate starts off with matchups between the Knicks and the Pistons, Orlando against Atlanta, the Rockets and the Bulls, the Clippers against the Lakers and ends with Sacramento against Portland. I’m sure everyone is ready for the 2020- 2021 NBA season to begin to see how their favorites do and see the rookie Cats in action and current NBA cats as well. Kentucky has a former Cat or former Cats on 21 of the 30 NBA teams. Here is a list of them below:
