Inside the Secret NBA Europe Talks: Could Real Madrid and Berlin Shake Up Basketball Forever?
The NBA has discussed its “vision” for a proposed European basketball league with Real Madrid and other Spanish clubs, says commissioner Adam Silver.
Initial plans for ‘NBA Europe’, starting in 2027, are for 10 to 12 set franchises that would stay in the league on an annual basis.

Silver said the idea would be to mix established European teams with new ones, with the league initially being funded by the selected member clubs.
The 63-year-old was speaking before the NBA’s first regular season game in Berlin, Germany on Thursday, which the Orlando Magic won 118-111 against the Memphis Grizzlies.
