How can sports teams be bought and sold?

539 views

Not sure if I phrased the question right, but what makes me ask is the Utah Jazz basketball team. I know they used to be in New Orleans (I’m almost sure) where having a team called Jazz made more sense, but now they are based in Utah, which I only associate with Mormons abs MLMs. Couldn’t someone in Utah have just made up a new team instead of buying an existing one? Same with the Giants.

The league has a set number of teams. In order to expand the league, all of the existing teams need to agree.

In order to move a team, the league needs to agree as well.
