The G League will debut in the Montreal area with six Long Island Nets games.
These games will mark the G League’s debut in Montreal, an area that should eventually come up in NBA expansion talks and might be being tested as a market through these games.
Although there is no indication that the Long Island Nets will relocate from the Coliseum yet, this six-game move to Canada continues to open that possibility. The Las Vegas Sands company is intent on moving forward with its plans to launch a casino in the area.a proposal to lease the Coliseum's property to Las Vegas Sands; however, the company has yet to receive a gaming license and continues to face public pushback. That might not be a deterrence, though.
The NBA has not added a new team since 2004, but league commissioner Adam Silver showed himself open to exploring the idea in June. Next season, the Nets will tip off their campaign at their typical home arena on Nov. 8 against the Maine Celtics. The Celtics beat the Nets in last season’s G League Playoff Conference Finals.
