Adam Silver will continue to lead the NBA
adam silver,commissioner NBA Since 2014, he recently finalized the final details of a new contract with the American League and its franchise, which will keep him in his current position through the end of the current decade. person in charge of the contest, 61 yearsIn recent months, multinational companies like Disney have shown interest in his situation and have been negotiating with the team for some time and considering other possibilities.As you indicated ESPN Now, it appears that the executive has already decided to stay in his current job after a decade of work that has brought about notable changes within the competition.
successor of david sternPreviously his right-hand man, he has led the launch of innovative initiatives including: play-in, the Playoff Access Tournament, and the recently released NBA Cup. Silver has a markedly different style from his iconic commissioner predecessor; Diplomacy and consensus building as his main weapon. The foundation is supported by good economic results from the commercial exploitation of television rights and rapid growth in franchise value. Popularity among league ownerseventually becoming their real boss.
The combination of draft lottery reforms and new competitive incentives won’t eliminate competition with the league’s bottom teams, but it will avoid a drastic reduction. Among the accomplishments of his responsibilities, Silver can boast of signing the highest-paid television contract in history in his first few months at the helm of the competition, but he has yet to see the league sign another record-breaking deal. This fact will surely be broken in the coming months. In March 2023, the president secured contractual peace with the players by signing a new collective agreement until 2029, when their soon-to-be-renewed contracts tentatively end.
Silver has successfully navigated notable crises, including the league’s suspension due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the controversial sale of the franchise by its owners. Donald Sterling and Robert Thurber, Other instances, such as the lax enforcement of suspensions against athletes and the lack of rigor against sex offenders, especially within the sport, have hurt his profile, although they have received more public attention than in the organization’s internal forums. Ta. After all, greater income and a certain stability and security for the owner are enough to justify large expenditures for its continuation and renewal.
Silver served as the league’s deputy commissioner for eight years before being named commissioner to replace Stern. In 2012, he was unanimously chosen to succeed the man who turned the NBA into a global phenomenon. A large part of our success to date has been in further strengthening and reinforcing the phenomenon that has made this league one of the most followed leagues in the world. Anything other than continuity in command of the competition would have been a big surprise.

Jokic may lose his chance to compete for NBA MVP award
Denver Nuggets announced Nikola Jokic He will miss at least four weeks due to left knee hyperextension.
The Serb is expected to miss all 18 matches in January and his maximum appearances this season could be limited to 64 matches. So Jokic will lose the opportunity to compete for the NBA’s main prizes – MVP and inclusion in the All-NBA, as this requires playing at least 65 games in the regular season.
Theoretically, he could return for the January 31 game against the Brooklyn Nets, which would give Nikola the opportunity to play 65 games before the end of the season, but that scenario is unlikely.
Jokic was injured in the last seconds of the first half of the match against Miami Heat (123:147) and did not return to the field after a long break. Before his injury, he managed to score 21 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds in just 19 minutes.
Jokic averaged 29.9 points, 12.4 rebounds and 11.1 assists per game this season.
