The NBA and FIBA are in the process of going through bids from those seeking franchises for a new league in Europe, with multiple potential ownership groups from all 12 of the league's targeted cities expressing interest. NBA Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum, speaking at an Associated Press Sports Editors meeting on Monday, said the NBA and FIBA “were very, very happy” with the interest shown by the bids.

“Right now, we’re just going through that process of narrowing down those bids into a little bit of a short list and trying to go out and continue to build partnerships with the right people in those markets,” Tatum said.
