ABA and NBA face merger plan after three seasons
ABA Commissioner Jack Dolph said the league agreed to general merger terms with the NBA. The plan would form a single league after three seasons with a one time 11 million payment for ABA teams, mixed exhibitions, a championship series, and an All Star game while keeping separate TV rights for now. A common draft would begin next year. Franklin Mieuli warned NBA owners could veto the deal, while the Pro Basketball Players Association opposes it to curb talent bidding.
