Summary
$10 billion-plus proposals are emerging for a Las Vegas NBA expansion team, with the next round of bids due Thursday and final offers expected shortly after.
Adam Silver said the league still aims to make expansion decisions by year-end, adding Las Vegas has moved faster than Seattle even though starting play there would take longer.
Seattle remains in the process, but arena questions have drawn more scrutiny in Las Vegas; the NBA recently visited Climate Pledge Arena to assess visibility issues.
The Board of Governors formally opened expansion bidding for Las Vegas and Seattle in March, and prior reporting said the league may choose a Las Vegas governor before finalizing Seattle.
