NBA Commissioner Silver says league not ready to discuss expansion, prioritizes federal sports betting framework.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced that the league is not currently ready to discuss expansion, although it plans to address the topic this season. Discussions on expansion were sidelined due to negotiations on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement and broadcast deals. Additionally, Silver emphasized the importance of establishing a federal framework for legalized sports betting rather than relying on inconsistent state laws. A committee of owners may be formed to explore expansion options in the future.
