For the longest time, NBA fans have been waiting for a team in Las Vegas. One of the most exciting cities in the world has long been wanting an official team in its name. And this season, their dreams might have started taking shape. Notably, back in the Summer League, LeBron James made his future plans known: a team for Sin City as he fell in love with the atmosphere. Now, they have taken further strides in building a multi-billion dollar arena.

James’ words reached NBA commissioner Adam Silver’s ears when he came on ‘NBA Today’. Malika Andrews curiously asked him about the league’s expansion plans. Silver revealed it isn’t on the top of his priority list. While it might not be immediate, the league isn’t saying no either. Notably, Silver was elated with James’ willingness to one day become an owner.

Despite saying it isn’t a part of the NBA’s immediate plans, the city might have taken it upon itself. Las Vegas revealed its new project, the All Net Resort & Arena.
