Member Teams of the A merican B asketball A ssociation are very appreciative of your individual desire to play professional basketball. However, not everyone will be selected to a team roster.
For those not selected the “business of basketball” can certainly be a career choice. Teams have many opportunities to be involved “off the court”. Marketing, Management, Press/Media relations, Radio/TV, Game day operations, Community Affairs, Sales, are just a few of the career opportunities that can be explored. The ABA is very aware that for every aspiring pro player “life after basketball” is a professional eventuality.
Good luck and for every aspiring pro player know this, the ABA “is more than a game” and can certainly be that for you off the court as well!
