NBA Confirms Expansion Teams Would Begin Playing In 2028-29 If Approved
Adam Silver confirmed that the NBA will determine by the end of 2026 whether they will expand from 30 teams to 32 with new franchises going to Seattle and Las Vegas. Silver also confirmed that the new teams would join the NBA ahead of the 2028-29 season in interviews with Dan Patrick and Malika Andrews. The NBA most recently expanded from 29 teams to 30 teams in 2004 when the Charlotte Bobcats joined the league for a 300 million expansion fee. The NBA's expansion fee is now expected to exceed 7 billion, but requires approval from 23 out of the league's 30 board of governors. The NBA is also simultaneously pursing a new league in Europe, which is on an independent track from domestic expansion. With two proposed teams situated in the Western Conference, the NBA is expected to move either the Minnesota Timberwolves, New Orleans Pelicans or Memphis Grizzlies to the Eastern Conference.
