2. Super regimented schedule

The league also gave out an example game day schedule teams can expect. Here is the rundown:

Breakfast: 8:30 – 10:00 (staggered based on the designated home team and away team)
Team Shootaround: 10:00 – 12:00 (virtual media availability for 2-3 players)
Lunch: 11:30 – 2:30 (staggered based on the designated home team and away team)
Downtime: 2:30 – 4:30
Pregame warmups/meetings: 5:00 – 7:00
Gametime: 7:10-9:40
Postgame: 9:40-10:30 (includes media available for at least 2 players)
Showers and meal at the hotel: 11:00 pm

Sounds like summer camp.

Transportation will also be provided to and from the arena and is expected to take about 15 minutes. Based on the sheer number of games that need to be played (88 to be exact, just for the regular season) in about two weeks’ time on only three courts, expect to see more than three games per day, and this is likely just the schedule for the 7 pm starts.
