NBA Updates! Where They Are Staying at Walt Disney World & More

We’ve previously shared updates about the NBA coming to Walt Disney World to finish out their season. It has been confirmed that Walt Disney World’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex will be hosting the games likely beginning at the end of July. Here’s the latest round up of announcements about their upcoming stay at Walt Disney World.

  

Due to the health guidelines, the NBA will require all players to remain onsite for the duration of the season. The question has been where will they stay?

According to Shams Charania, Senior Lead NBA Insider, teams will stay at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, and the Gran Destino Tower at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. The teams will be housed as follows:
