As Gazzetta dello Sport reports, the NBA scheduled a new meeting in London for Monday with two Italian teams.
According to the report, Olimpia Milano and football giant AC Milan will attend the meeting, while Inter Milan won't.
Tomorrow's meeting will be held in central London. NBA officials, representatives of interested clubs, sponsors, and investors will be present.
The NBA will give a detailed presentation on the new European league, outlining its financial parameters, how the tournament will operate, and its requirements for franchise management.
It won't be a decisive meeting, but it's a significant step, coming at the end of a week of themed meetings.
Gerry Cardinale, head of RedBird and owner of AC Milan, was the first to make the move and has already met with Adam Silver and NBA officials, with whom he has long-standing relationships.
AC Milan fans will also recall that LeBron James, upon the closing of the deal between Elliott and RedBird, became a passive investor in AC Milan, owning shares in Main Street Advisors.
Meanwhile, Ettore Messina, president of Basketball Operations, and general manager Christos Stavropoulos will represent Olimpia Milan.
Earlier, it was revealed that the NBA held talks with Barcelona about their potential entry into the NBA Europe.
