Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the B. League ran out of all options but one: canceling the remainder of the 2019-20 season.

The league announced on Friday that it will not play any of the games remaining on the schedule, including the postseason. The decision was reached during an emergency board meeting earlier in the day.

The revised regular season was to end in early May and be followed by the playoffs. The final was to be held on May 11 at Yokohama Arena.
