LeBron James Publicly Lobbies Adam Silver To Be Part Of Vegas Ownership
LeBron James publicly lobbied Adam Silver to be part of the ownership group for an expansion franchise in Las Vegas.
James' comments came after a preseason game in Las Vegas between the Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns.
"I would love to bring a team here at some point. That would be amazing. I know Adam is in Abu Dhabi right now, I believe," James said, alluding to the Milwaukee Bucks and Atlanta Hawks' preseason trip to the United Arab Emirates that Silver is attending. "But he probably sees every single interview and transcript that comes through from NBA players.
"So, I want the team here, Adam. Thank you."
In June, on an episode of his YouTube show "The Shop: Uninterrupted," James first revealed his goal.
"I want a team in Vegas," said James, who is already a part owner of Liverpool FC and the Boston Red Sox. "I want the team in Vegas."
