The EuroLeague has already expanded its league, while the NBA is still considering a similar move. During an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, Adam Silver stated that the league could expand into countries bordering the United States to the north and south, such as Mexico and Canada.<\/p>\n
Expanding the league could lead to further increases in popularity and economic revenue, since creating a franchise in another US state might not produce the same results given that the NBA already reaches over a billion people in America.<\/p>\n
Adam Silver’s words on NBA expansion<\/strong>: “We will seriously evaluate the issue this summer. Adding another US city… It is unclear what growth we could achieve as a result. Over time, perhaps we can do more in Canada and Mexico City\u201d.<\/p>\n He added that NBA expansion is not certain, but will be discussed at the Board of Governors meeting at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas in July.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adam Silver spoke about NBA expansion: these are the statements made by the league commissioner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":174,"featured_media":419112,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[92],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-446336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba"],"yoast_head":"\n
