NBA Commissioner David Stern expects a concrete financing plan from Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson within the next two weeks, with the aim of settling the Kings’ future by mid-April.

Stern said that Johnson will attend an April 17-18 owners meeting in New York to deliver his proposal, but the league expects to have heard it by then.

”We have an April 17th meeting of the board, but if the mayor follows through on what he’s told us, we’ll have it comfortably by March 1,” Stern said Thursday.
