There have been many reports and rumours coming out of the woodwork recently about the fascinating phenomenon of NBA expansion. Stories have recently indicated or guessed that Seattle, Louisville and even Mexico City (lol) are possible locations for expansion franchises.
The reason I’m even bringing this subject up, given the cloudy nature of its actual realisation, is the fact that were such an event to happen, it would require an expansion draft, a funny concept in the scope of the NBA. For those of you unaware with what an expansion draft is, I’ll attempt to explain in layman’s terms.
