we already know the play is going to be Vegas and Seattle get A Team at the same time. The Vegas team will be headed by LeBron after he retires.
They probably move Minneapolis to the eastern conference to make up the difference.
After that it’s a very small list of eligible cities. I still think the grizzlies relocate to Nashville before the decade ends, there’s too much money in Nashville to leave it alone.
Pittsburgh could support an NBA team. St. Louis and Cincinnati absolutely cannot. Neither can Kansas City. Louisville is in the midst of a shrinking downtown and doesn’t really have a plan for its economic future so they probably are not a viable candidate despite having an NBA ready Arena.
I think the league is happy with Toronto being the sole occupant of NBA basketball in Canada . They are happy with the Drake partnership .
Plus from a diversity standpoint Toronto makes the most sense. Montreal doesnt vibe and Vancouver scares them because of the CCP money.
Mexico City is inevitable for both the NFL and the NBA so the next expansion after the Vegas Seattle Minneapolis move will probably be a team in Mexico City and A Team in Pittsburgh.
