The NBA has moved its expansion vote to the Board of Governors meeting in March, with Las Vegas and Seattle the only potential candidates. This move signals momentum among team owners, according to FOX5 sports reporter Mariah Janos. The expansion field is limited to two cities and the league would either add both teams simultaneously or none at all. Each franchise is expected to cost between $7 billion and $10 billion. The preferred start date for both franchises is the 2028-29 season. Several high-profile names have been linked to a potential Las Vegas ownership group, including Magic Johnson and LeBron James.
