NBA Expansion, Draymond Green’s Take: “There Isn’t Enough Talent”
The NBA isn’t ready to grow in terms of franchises: Draymond Green stresses that without enough talent, expansion would compromise competitiveness and the overall product
In recent days, there has been intense discussion about the possibility that starting next summer the NBA expansion long rumored could finally become reality, with two teams set to enter the league. Seattle and Las Vegas are the leading candidates to host a franchise.
This situation risks reshaping the balance of the league, and there is already speculation about which teams could switch conferences if expansion moves forward.
Draymond Green wasted no time sharing his opinion, getting straight to the point with firm remarks.
About a third of the teams are tanking and playing poorly for most of the Regular Season. From a competitiveness and business standpoint, it might be an effective move, but if you look strictly at player talent, it’s not a wise decision: you risk further diluting the overall technical level of the teams, making the current situation even worse.

The stance of the “Dancing Bear” on a potential expansion is clear: the focus should be more on quality than quantity of games, and on preserving talent. This topic will dominate conversations in the coming months, and any decision will undoubtedly have consequences for years to come.
