The Las Vegas Sphere has been one of the most talked about attractions in recent times. The Sphere opened on September 29th this year after being in construction for almost five years. Being in the heart of Vegas, it becomes obvious that celebrities will take an interest in the unique structure.

Now that rumors of Shaquille O’Neal and LeBron James owning an NBA team based out of Vegas (individually) are at a high. It begs the question, could the MSG Sphere be home to either of their NBA team? Let’s find out.

The Las Vegas Sphere

There are several properties across the world with a unique and appealing design. From the Empire State Building to the Burj Khalifa, these structures are more than just a building, they’re tourist attractions as well. However, the MSG Sphere dwarfs all these other spots when it comes to being creative and making path-breaking projects. The $2.3 Billion structure is already being mentioned among the best projects in the world despite being open for just a few weeks.

The MSG Sphere opened on September 29th with a concert by the Irish rock band U2. Following the concert, the visuals from inside the sphere started pouring in and they were mesmerizing, to say the least. The interior of the Sphere is 16K resolution wraparound LED screens and is capable of providing a thrilling experience. On the outside, the Sphere is a great model to advertise on and several companies are already using it. The 18,600-seat auditorium is a perfect fit for the events that have been hosted at the Sphere. However, can NBA games be held at the Sphere?

Can LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neal make the Sphere their home ground?

With Shaq and LeBron inching closer to owning an NBA team, that too in Vegas, the Sphere seems to be the perfect spot to call their home. The Sphere is designed to host award shows, concerts, and even private shows. However, for those wondering, it might not be possible as the place cannot fit a traditional arena inside, fit to host an NBA game. While there are enough facilities to host a UFC card or even a boxing bout, putting up an NBA hardwood might not be possible for the multi-billion dollar project.
