Adam Silver Says The NBA Is Discussing Adding An Independent League In Europe

The NBA is always looking for ways to expand, and Commissioner Adam Silver has been very honest about his desire to make basketball even more international.

Speaking with Shaquille O’Neal on “The Big Podcast,” he talked about creating a brand new “independent” league in Europe that could cater to the growing European fanbase that wants more games.

“This could leverage the enormous interest in basketball in major European capitals like Paris, London, Berlin, and Madrid—and other major cities that love basketball,” Silver said.
