Join us every weekday morning for the messy, delightful, complicated conversations that Las Vegans are having: You’ll hear us ask hard questions about where we’ll get our water when Lake Mead runs out, and how we’ll keep housing affordable. We’ll argue over our favorite Chinatown bars, and share insider tips on the best tacos in town. City Cast Las Vegas will show you how loving a city means celebrating it and also holding it accountable, while having some fun along the way—because Las Vegans know how to have a good time.

The Golden Knights arrived in 2017, the Aces followed, then the Raiders came to town and the Athletics are on their way. Now, as Summer League returns to Las Vegas, the NBA is eyeing the valley for one of two expansion franchises, alongside Seattle. But is the city actually ready for the NBA? News 3 Sports Director Bryan Salmond and Vegas Sports Today’s Cassandra Cousineau join the show to break down whether Las Vegas has the market, the right ownership options and the arena infrastructure to make an NBA team work, and whether it's more likely to follow the Golden Knights' model of local support or the Raiders' reliance on tourists.
