Possible Start Dates for the 2022 NBA Season
The 2022 NBA season is still a ways off, but there are already a few possible dates floating around for when the season might start.
One possibility is that the season could start on October 15th, 2022. This would give the league plenty of time to promote the season and get people excited for basketball again.
Another possibility is that the season could start on November 1st, 2022. This would allow the league to take advantage of the Thanksgiving holiday and get people talking about basketball while they are with their families.
Ultimately, it is up to the league to decide when the season will start. However, these are two of the most likely dates for when the season might begin.
