1. NBA Awards in Las Vegas
Silver is considering adding an NBA Awards show in Las Vegas.

3. No NBA team coming to Las Vegas (or anywhere)

Las Vegas should be happy with the Summer League and a possible awards show (Vegas already hosts NHL awards) and move along with any dreams of getting a team to call their own. I’m curious about this potential mid-season tournament. That sounds really interesting.
The NHL on the other hand may be a different story…
