ORLANDO: The NBA is considering hosting a pre-season game in Mumbai next year, the league's commissioner Adam Silver has said.
To promote the game in India, NBA in May 2017 had launched The NBA Academy, an elite basketball training center at Jaypee Greens Integrated Sports Complex in Greater Noida. NBA's initiative has been yielding desired results as 20 odd boys and girls from New Delhi and Bengaluru have represented India in the just-concluded Jr NBA World Championships that concluded here Sunday night.
