NBA Lockout: David Stern Leaves Mediation To Meet With NBA Planning Committee

NBA commissioner David Stern left a mediation meeting with players with attend a NBA Planning committee Wednesday, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.

NBA spokesman says David Stern left hotel to meet with NBA's Planning Committee meeting, but Adam Silver continues to meet with NBPA.

Stern left with Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck for NBA Board of Governors Planning Committee meeting, which centers on revenue sharing.

Silver, deputy commissioner, and Spurs owner Peter Holt are still meeting with mediator and union officials.

What does it mean? Possibly nothing. With other notables still in the mediation, it’s not as if the owners walked away from it. Still...Stern had to know his action would be noticed.

Expect the mediation to continue and expect Stern to be back at the table sooner or later.
