Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National Basketball Association has
opened a new office in Moscow, as announced by deputy commissioner and COO
Adam Silver on Thursday.
Moscow joins the ever-expanding international umbrella housing an NBA office,
which includes seven markets in the Europe, Middle East and Africa regions.
"This is a great time for the NBA to expand its presence in Russia, especially
given Mikhail Prokhorov's commitment to further grow the sport in the
country," said Silver. "We are excited to open our first office and we welcome
Egor Borisov, whose wealth of experience and tremendous enthusiasm for the
game will help spur the continued growth of basketball in the region."
Prokhorov recently became the first non-North American owner of an NBA
franchise when he purchased the New Jersey Nets in May.
Borisov joins the NBA as vice president of development, Russia and Eastern
Europe.
