Oak View Group has been one of the most successful arena developers in the United States in recent years, and now Leiweke plans to build an arena within a resort campus that he hopes will attract an NBA team.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Drawing the NBA to Las Vegas seems like a slam dunk, but Leiweke explained to the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance 2023 Perspective gathering what his strategy is. One of the best parts is that Leiweke has already done somewhere else — in Seattle — what he intends to do in Las Vegas.

Leiweke’s plan is to build a $10 billion casino resort at Las Vegas Boulevard and Blue Diamond Road, which would be the most expensive development ever built in Las Vegas. Incorporated into that 2,000-room resort would be a 20,000-seat, NBA-ready arena.
