Silver: Owners likely to urge exploring expansion
Briefly

During a press conference ahead of Game 1 of the NBA Finals, Commissioner Adam Silver revealed that expansion will be a topic of discussion at the upcoming Board of Governors meeting. He expressed optimism about the level of interest from NBA owners in exploring expansion possibilities. Silver noted that while many cities are eager to enter the league, it's essential to handle the process fairly. He emphasized that while the outlook for expansion discussions is positive, it is not yet assured, and the timing remains uncertain.
"There's been no lack of interest. I essentially have said to people from several different cities, 'We're just not engaging in that process right now.'"
"I'd say the current sense is we should be exploring it. I don't think it's automatic, because it depends on you never know when you hit a moment where it feels like it's the right decision."
