NEW YORK (AP) — Two people with knowledge of the plans say the
lead negotiators for the NBA owners and players will meet Wednesday
for just the second time since the lockout began.

Commissioner David Stern, deputy commissioner Adam Silver and San
Antonio Spurs owner Peter Holt, who leads the labor relations
committee, will take part, as will players’ association executive
director Billy Hunter and union president Derek Fisher of the
Lakers, two people told the Associated Press on Monday on condition
of anonymity because the talks are supposed to be
confidential.

The sides last met Aug. 1, exactly one month after the lockout was
imposed. Stern was disappointed by the players’ position and has
said there must be progress by Labor Day. The sides remain far
apart on numerous financial issues. Training camps are scheduled to
start in October.
