The G League has arrived.
The rebranding of what had been known as the NBA Development League went into effect Tuesday, designed to coincide with NBA draft week – since it’s certain many of the players who will be selected will spend some time in the G League this coming season.
It’s a partnership with Gatorade, in a deal that was announced back in February, but the new name is no abbreviation: What was often called the D-League is now officially the ”NBA G League.”
”We’re thrilled with this exciting new chapter for our league,” G League President Malcolm Turner said.
