Vegas on Deck: The Crowded Quest for an NBA Franchise

Las Vegas is pursuing an NBA expansion with a crowded field of potential owners and a multi‑billion-dollar price tag. Bill Foley is a front‑runner thanks to an arena deal and local success; high‑powered backers Joshua Kushner and Bob Iger loom as a stealthy, top‑tier bid; the Las Vegas Jacks led by Jerry Colangelo aim for an all‑cash bid and a new arena; other groups including Magic Johnson's MAGI, Mark Davis, and Shaq are in play, while LeBron James has cooled on pursuing a team. With the league weighing the market and a year‑end decision anticipated, Vegas could host one or two new franchises in coming years.
