The Las Vegas sports landscape is already home to the Raiders, the Golden Knights, the Aces, and many prominent minor league teams, and another team may be on the way. A new stadium is being constructed on the Strip, and the owners are very open to the idea of a basketball team. 

“The arena will be world-class,” CEO of Oakview group, Tim Leiweke said. “We’re prepared to spend about a billion dollars on building the new arena. It will be for music, it’ll be for sports, it’ll be for cultural activities, and should the NBA decide to come—and by the way, there’s no certainty or no guarantees that the NBA is ever coming to Vegas but should they come—we certainly will be NBA-ready and make sure that we hit all of their standards.”
