“FloSports is excited to extend our partnership with the Nike EYBL summer series supporting both the elite youth boys (U17 and E16) and girls divisions,” FloSports SVP Global Rights Acquisition and Subscription Phil Wendler says. “Established as the top grassroots summer series, the EYBL, along with FloHoops’ year-round prep and grassroots programing, makes FloHoops the No. 1 platform to watch the nation’s future NCAA and NBA stars live from anywhere in the world.”

“EYBL is one of the largest and most established summer basketball programs, and our fans expect and deserve in-depth and comprehensive coverage to follow their favorite players,” says Carlton DeBose, Nike’s Elite Youth Basketball Director. “FloHoops’ commitment to providing this type of content and coverage made it a natural choice to partner again, and we’re looking forward to working with the FloSports team throughout the 2018 EYBL season.”

Alums of the EYBL include some of the top NBA players in the world, including New Orleans Pelicans forward Anthony Davis (MeanStreets), Philadelphia Sixers guard Ben Simmons (E1T1) and Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (Alabama Challenge). In addition to the NBA, 83 Nike EYBL alumni participated in the 2018 NCAA Sweet Sixteen.
