INDIANAPOLIS -- NBA commissioner Adam Silver said Wednesday that Las Vegas is "definitely on our list" of cities under consideration for expansion franchises.

Las Vegas has been mentioned as an NBA destination many times before. The timetable for when the league will add new franchises to its existing group of 30 clubs is unclear. The NBA has another year after this season on its $24 billion, nine-year media rights deal, and Silver has long said that serious expansion talks won't happen until the new media deal is finalized.
