I wonder where the teams stay, when they play the Magic. If they want to stay close to WDW, I'm surprised they're not booking all the rooms at the Ritz first. Many college teams stay at hotels that are nicer than WDW Deluxe resorts. It's hard to imagine that the NBA would stay in a WDW value or moderate resort. I've seen several people suggest that they'll stay at CSR. If that's the case, CSR will probably have to make significant upgrades to the rooms & dining options.
Supposedly the most common hotel used in the Orlando area by visiting NBA teams is the Grand Bohemian.
Any notable clients?
Stay during basketball season and you may notice some rather tall guests here; the Grand Bohemian regularly hosts NBA teams in town to play the Orlando Magic.
Of course this wouldn't be likely if there are all NBA teams in town at the same time. But it really doesn't matter to the NBA about staying at a specific site. If they stay on Disney property they would be bussed around. If they stay at a hotel in downtown Orlando, they would be bussed around. This is pretty much the lifestyle they have. When the Warriors were playing in Oakland, most visiting teams stayed in San Francisco. NBA teams playing against Brooklyn stay in Manhattan like they did when they played the Knicks.
