NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced that while there is strong interest in league expansion, particularly in Seattle and Las Vegas, the NBA is not yet ready to make any commitments. Silver emphasized that discussions about expansion will be addressed this season, but complexities such as selling equity and existing television relationships need to be resolved first. Although there was limited discussion about expansion in the latest Board of Governors meeting, the league is closely monitoring support in potential markets, including an upcoming Clippers exhibition game in Seattle. Optimism remains high for a potential return of the Seattle SuperSonics, with local officials and fans expressing enthusiasm. Historical precedents suggest that expansion is a recurring theme in the NBA, with the last addition being the Charlotte Bobcats nearly two decades ago.
