Other Billion-Dollar NBA Teams
Honourable Mentions: it says a lot how the NBA has grown when billion-dollar franchises couldn’t make the top ten. Just falling short of making the list are the San Antonio Spurs valued at $1.15 billion with a $170 million profit, the Cleveland Cavaliers at $1.1 billion with a $191 million profit and the Phoenix Suns at $1 billion with revenue of $154 million. The Spurs have been the NBA’s model of excellence for over 25 seasons while the Cavs are the defending champions and the Suns are arguably the best franchise to not win an NBA title.
The NBA will be heading into its 70th season and it’s thanks to all the support the fans have provided.
