On the vibe of Summer League with six days left, LeGarie said, \u201cThis is right now the 31st franchise. (NBA Commissioner Adam Silver) called it that. And by the way, people have responded. We\u2019ve had four really good days here.\u201d LeGarie said the Summer League continues to work in Las Vegas with \u201cluck and timing.\u201d He noted the NBA originally was right to keep the league \u201cout of a gambling establishment, but having the two gyms together was a game changer.\u201d LeGarie: \u201cThat\u2019s just fortuitous. There\u2019s no way you can do all 30 teams in one gym unless you\u2019re doing basically a 24-hour coffee shop because you would start at 6 in the morning and finish at 6 in the morning.\u201d When asked if he anticipates Summer League becoming a central meeting point for the NBA at large, LeGarie responded, \u201cI don\u2019t think we imagined that we\u2019d make it into entertainment as much as it is real basketball. It\u2019s not an NBA game, but it\u2019s definitely an NBA experience\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewjournal.com\/sports\/basketball\/nba-summer-league\/nba-summer-league-co-founder-hopes-expansion-bidders-see-what-we-do-3850135\/?utm_campaign=widget&amp;utm_medium=latest&amp;utm_source=sports&amp;utm_term=NBA%20Summer%20League%20co-founder%20hopes%20expansion%20bidders%20%E2%80%98see%20what%20we%20do%E2%80%99\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.reviewjournal.com\/sports\/basketball\/nba-summer-league\/nba-summer-league-co-founder-hopes-expansion-bidders-see-what-we-do-3850135\/?utm_campaign=widget&amp;utm_medium=latest&amp;utm_source=sports&amp;utm_term=NBA%20Summer%20League%20co-founder%20hopes%20expansion%20bidders%20%E2%80%98see%20what%20we%20do%E2%80%99\">LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 7\/13<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NBA Summer League co-founder Warren LeGarie so far \u201cis satisfied with the play and turnout at UNLV\u201d during&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":762708,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[402,355,99,10171],"class_list":["post-762707","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-basketball","tag-nba","tag-sports","tag-sustainability"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/762707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=762707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/762707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/762708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=762707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=762707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=762707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
