What could NBA ultimately do with the new league it's building in Europe?

Adam Silver: "We have something we call the NBA Cup... You could imagine teams in Europe, potentially Africa, competing in that tournament. You possibly could see teams coming into our playoffs, top seeds from other leagues."

The leap from USL2 to pro is MASSIVE from an economics standpoint with American soccer as currently constructed. If Vermont Green/Annapolis Blues/Ballard FC/etc. had a regional pro path it could be a big step towards pro/rel.

We need a map guy to lay this out. Could be close to regional play/divisions soon

USL League One Expansion Updates: Summer 2025 2026 shaping up to be another big year, while even more markets look towards the future

There’s a strong possibility USL League One could have 21 clubs in 2026. Plus a briefing on 24 other projects in various stages of development for 2027 and beyond. The summer expansion report is here 👀

What did I miss for tomorrow?

Instead of building detention camps, let’s build this

Lakers, Celtics, Rays, Whitecaps and Earthquakes. Unrelated coincidence or bubbling pattern in u.s. sports?

I mean would there be a chance they buy the rights to Rowdies (separating from the rays)

Forgive my ignorance, would the Sun owners be up for a men’s team in their proposed stadium?

Interesting that link says USL-C, based on what I hear I think it's much more likely to be the new D1 thing.

What a roller coaster in Ft. Myers 🎢

Big USL League One expansion report coming tomorrow on @beyondthe90.bsky.social. Even with Ft. Myers dead, there are a TON of new projects in the works. Stay tuned, drops at 7:15 AM ET 👀

Any signs yet Graham?

Local rivalries are needed. Hopefully territory rights start to go away soon in USL

Needs to happen.

🤔

There is more prize money than winning MLS Cup, a Concacaf Champions Cup spot, and it will only take seven games to do it.

I will never understand those who don’t treat this tournament seriously.

Long live the Open Cup!

FC Cincinnati spent more than $30 million this offseason. The problem: they could only spend it on a few spots.

3-1 Tigres. Another MLS team out of the Concacaf Champions Cup.

More evidence piled up that *how* MLS teams spend needs to change.

Been obvious for a while now. Will MLS do something?

According to a connected source, NISA commissioner John Prutch has resigned from his position.

Missed that, thanks

ESPN+ for other games still?

The absolute best thing that could happen for the USL D1 mens league to just stir up massive ... interest... drama... storylines.... and internet outrage/love

NY Cosmos

Damn, buying Sam a drink (and his dog one too) tonight

Probably from @jdnalton.bsky.social go.bsky.app/6MjSiK6

Any USL guests on WTF today?

Or Monopoly like

*Pulls Chance Card

"You accidently got drunk on Friday night and promised all of lower league soccer you would buy their pizza for the night. Pay all other Players $25"

Overall, yes. But as with most actions within the Soccer Warz, there will be losers

They could also go this route if the other USL rumors have any legs to it.
