Want to have an authentic NBA experience? Come and join the "NBA Nation".
Hot on the heels of the NBA Presents: Jam Live event last month in Guangzhou, NBA China is planning to bring even more excitement to Chinese fans by launching "NBA Nation", a traveling basketball event, on Saturday in Changsha, Hunan province.
The initiative, which will visit 20 cities over the next five months, comprises a basketball and entertainment playground featuring various hoops activities.
Fans will have the opportunity to shoot, slam, dribble and drive on two half courts and participate in a series of activities such as Tall and Short, Arm Span, Get-a-Grip as well as enjoy a NBA video games corner.
"NBA Nation provides an excellent platform for us to deliver the best of the NBA experience to the doorsteps of our fans," said NBA China CEO David Shoemaker.
"We are constantly looking for new and engaging ways to interact with our fans and I hope the first-ever NBA Nation will give fans a chance to touch and feel the NBA, and interact with our legends and players."
During the five-month course, NBA legends and players will make appearances at the stops. Chinese celebrities will also join them in certain cities.
