NEW YORK (AP) — The season-long celebration of the NBA’s 75th anniversary is winding down.

As part of The Associated Press series on the NBA’s first 75 years, Commissioner Adam Silver offered perspective on what the league could look like 25 years from now when it celebrates its 100th anniversary.

What will the @NBA be like at 100? In an essay for the #APNBAat75 series, Commissioner Adam Silver muses:

🏀Watch anywhere and 'feel like you are in an arena.'
🏀Different schedules, tournaments.
🏀Teams outside North America.

He says it is difficult to predict the future one year from now, let alone 25.

But he also insists that the league’s bedrock principle will remain that “sports have the power to change the world.”
