Winning percentage will determine final NBA standings
Teams whom will play in Orlando have played, as of today, a different amount of games.
Winning percentage will be used to determine the final standings once the NBA season resumes, league sources told Tim Bontemps of ESPN.
The 22 teams invited to Orlando are expected to play 8 regular-season “seeding” games. Winning percentage could play a key role in the final standings as teams have played a different amount of games.
Bontemps points out that the Blazers have played two more games than the Pelicans and went 1-1, thus the Pelicans would have to have a better record than the Blazers in their remaining games to leap them in the standings.
