NBA commissioner Adam Silver once again touched on the NBA expansion talks, hinting that it's inevitable.

"It's not a sure thing, but as I've said before, I think it's natural that organizations grow over time," Silver said at the Associated Press Sports Editors convention. "We will look at [Las Vegas]. There's no doubt there's enormous interest in Seattle. That's not a secret. There are other markets that have indicated interest."

However, Silver also noted that currently, there are no talks.

"And just for the people who will hear or read about this interview, we are not engaged in that process now. I mean, we're not taking meetings right now with any potential groups. What we're saying to everyone privately is the same thing. I'm saying publicly that there'll be a very open process at the time we're ready to consider expansion. But that's not yet the -- that's not now," Silver concluded.
