One of the key selling points of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic bid was its compact plan, which called for 85 percent of the venues to be within 8 km of the Olympic Village.

Which brings us to basketball. The Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee's official bid to the IOC called for a new basketball venue to be be built in Tokyo.
