NBA commissioner Adam Silver isn't worried about losing talent to European league, but maybe he should be

The article discusses the NBA commissioner Adam Silver's lack of concern about the potential threat of European leagues poaching NBA talent. While the NBA has plans to establish a league in Europe by 2027 or 2028, Silver is not worried about losing top players to these European counterparts. The article suggests that Silver may be underestimating the appeal of the European leagues, which have been steadily improving and attracting more attention. It notes that some NBA players, such as LaMelo Ball, have expressed interest in playing in Europe, and that the NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) rules in college basketball could further incentivize players to consider European options. The article also highlights the potential advantages of the European leagues, such as shorter seasons and the opportunity for players to develop their skills in a different environment. It suggests that Silver may need to reevaluate his stance and take the European leagues more seriously as potential competitors for NBA talent.
