继3月份董事会会议引发广泛关注后，NBA理事会于3月25日一致通过了一项开始接受西雅图和拉斯维加斯新球队投标的措施，预计扩军费用在70亿至100亿美元之间。总裁亚当·萧华强调了这些市场对篮球运动的强力支持，并计划于2028-29赛季正式亮相。
萧华在一份声明中表示：“今天的投票反映了我们董事会有意探索在拉斯维加斯和西雅图进行扩张的潜力——这两个市场长期以来一直支持NBA篮球。我们期待着迈出下一步，并与感兴趣的各方进行接触。”此次批准基于早期的报道，为所有权集团的竞标敞开了大门，其中可能包括拉斯维加斯的“魔术师”约翰逊和拉斯维加斯黄金骑士队老板比尔·福利。消息人士指出，扩军只是“何时实现，而非是否实现”的问题。西雅图可能会依据2008年的和解协议，恢复“超音速队”的名称和历史。两座城市目前都有现成的球馆。预计今年晚些时候将进行需要30位理事中23人投票通过的最终表决，同时还将讨论赛区重新划分的问题。
X平台上的讨论对NBA董事会一致通过西雅图和拉斯维加斯的扩军投标表示欢迎。西雅图球迷对超音速队可能回归感到兴奋，而拉斯维加斯官员也对这一举措表示欢迎。高参与度聚焦于前所未有的70亿至100亿美元扩军费用，引发了将其与当前球队估值进行对比的分析。也有质疑声音对西雅图的球队价值以及拉斯维加斯在现有运动队背景下的市场饱和度提出了疑问。

An expansion NBA team $7-10 billion 🤯 Makes sense for Seattle. Vegas is a major gamble. Service-based economy market already oversaturated by NFL, NHL, WNBA and incoming MLB. https://t.co/FKqSaqWWqH

The NFL is scheduled to hold a record nine international games this season, with owners set to consider further expansion. They will vote this week in Orlando on adding two additional matchups for 2027, potentially reaching 11 games abroad. The move would test the limits of the current collective bargaining agreement.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver dismissed suggestions to move the Memphis Grizzlies to Nashville, despite LeBron James's recent push. Silver affirmed the team's future in Memphis while expressing interest in playing a few games in Nashville to represent Tennessee more broadly. Grizzlies owner Robert Pera has no plans to relocate the franchise.

The NBA board of governors voted Thursday to flatten draft lottery odds starting with the 2027 draft. The changes include a 3-2-1 system using 37 balls for 16 teams and will expire after three years. League officials are already eyeing a possible draft credit system to replace the lottery entirely by 2030.
